The victor is rewarded with the seventh seed in the playoffs. The teams with the ninth-best and tenth-best winning percentages face each other in a game titled the Nine-Ten Game. The loser of the Seven-Eight game hosts the winner of the Nine-Ten Game and the winner of that game is seeded eighth in the playoffs.
