BA/ERA/WHIP decimal points

Post by Ando » Sun Sep 29, 2013 9:34 pm

Greg,

Are the final standings of the categories decided by decimal points carried out until one team finishes ahead of another?

Example:

Does .271456778 beat .27145654 for batting average?

Obviously it should, just looking for confirmation that categories involving decimal points are carried out until one team finishes ahead or behind another.

Yes they are.
As it stands right now in my online main league, with tonight's game to go, first and second place in the league are being decided somewhere with the 5th number or later in the BA category. Both teams have no players playing in that category, so it should not change. I'm guessing, but that sounds like 1 hit over the course of the season to me.
