The Pacific League's first place team gets a bye, then the second and third place teams play a best of 3 game series. The winner of that series goes on to play the first place team in a best of 5 game series. The winner of that goes on to play the Central League champion in the Nippon Series.

The Central League, if I remember right, doesn't have a playoff, and the first place team just goes straight to the Nippon Series.

Also these two topics might help:
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
