Games behind instead of Winning Pct

I would prefer to see division races shown by games behind instead of winning pct. It has more meaning that way.

I am really confused by this request. Even my phone app displays games behind along with winning percentage.

Also, in real life, winning percentage determines who is in first. When an uneven number of games have been played (obviously this doesn't happen in SOM365 where all teams always play an equal number), it's possible for the first place team to be behind according the games behind.

For example:

Team......W-L...Pct..GB
Team Blue 10-4 .714 1/2
Team Red 12-5 .705 --

In this case, Team Blue is in first place despite being 1/2 game behind.

Guessing here, but I think they mean perhaps on the line graph below the standings (or maybe not)?

Good point. That makes sense.
