What are the details of the rule for deciding home/away team?
The highest-seeded teams advancing from super-regional tournaments shall be the home teams for the first-round contests. In the event of a match-up between equally seeded teams, a coin flip will determine the home team. In subsequent games, the home team shall be determined according to the following formula:
The institution that has been the home team the fewer number of times shall be designated the home team.
If the two teams are equal in this respect but unequal in the number of times they were the visitor, then the team that has been the visitor more often will be designated the home team.
If the two teams are equal in the number of times that they have been home and visitor, the games committee or the NCAA game representative shall observe the following procedures in the order stated:
--If the two teams have met previously in that particular tournament, the visitor in the previous game shall be the home team in the game in question.
--The team that was visitor in its preceding game shall be the home team, unless both teams were visitors in their preceding games.
--If the above procedures do not resolve the matter, the home team shall be determined by coin toss. The coin toss will be held on the field immediately after the game that caused the situation to develop and both coaches are requested to be in attendance
The Division I baseball committee has determined that for the championship series, if one team advances to the championship series with no losses and the other team has one loss, then the undefeated team would be provided the choice in the first game of selecting to be either the home or visiting team. The other team not receiving the choice in game one would be designated as the opposite option in the second game (e.g., if the team with the choice in the first game chooses to be the home team, then in the second game the team not receiving the choice in the first game would be the home team). The home team for the third game, if necessary, would be determined by a coin toss prior to the game. If both team enter the championship series either undefeated or with one loss, then the home team for game one would be determined by a coin toss prior to the game. The other team not designated as the home team in the first game would be the home team in the second game. The home team for the third game, if necessary, would be determined by another coin toss prior to the game.
