(SeasonGames + 1) - LeaderWins - OpponentLosses.Notes & Tie‑breakers
- The magic number is any combination of leader wins and opponent losses.
- Since 2022 there’s no Game 163. Ties are settled by MLB tie‑breakers (H2H, intradivision, etc.). This tool reports the traditional magic number, not tie‑breaker status.
- Works for any league size; just enter your division’s records.
