^ Ties are very uncommon in modern baseball, and are not counted in official standings, but all statistics accumulated in the game are counted. In normal play, ties should not occur in baseball, as the rules state that extra innings are played until one of the two teams wins the game. In modern baseball, tied games can only occur if such a game is the last scheduled between the two teams that season and has no bearing on the postseason. In all other cases, the game is merely suspended and completed at the first opportunity. Tied games were more common in the early days of baseball, before the introduction of floodlights in MLB ballparks, when darkness would halt games on occasion. The few ties that still occur are usually caused by bad weather.

Win percentage

Managers included have managed at least 450 games – slightly less than three full seasons and a group including 296 managers – and regular season win percentages of at least .540. Note that the total number of games listed for each manager in this table includes tie games though ties are not included in "decided game" statistics. The lowest winning percentage for a qualifying manager is Doc Prothro: .301 (138–320–2) in 460 games.

Vic Harris has the highest winning percentage of all time. Harris managed the Homestead Grays to seven Negro National League pennants and one Negro World Series title in eleven seasons as manager.

Dave Roberts is the manager of the Los Angeles Dodgers, winning the 2020 World Series. Roberts is the leader in winning percentage by an active manager.

Known as "Marse Joe", Joe McCarthy guided the New York Yankees to eight pennants in 16 seasons. McCarthy is the all-time leader in winning percentage by a manager with more than 1,000 wins in Major League Baseball.
