(1939-44: Series Interrupted During WWII)<br />
Note: Prior to 1972, a team’s winning pct. was calculated using wins and<br />
losses, disregarding ties. (Ex: Detroit’s record in the 1960s was 2-6-2 and<br />
their winning pct. was .250, two wins/two wins + six losses). Since 1972,<br />
ties have been calculated in winning pct. as a half-a-win.<br />
