If you play a game to a tie and finish the season 99-62 with a tie, and the other team in your division finished 100-62, well the 100-62 team should win the division. You shouldn't get an extra game (#163) to get your 100th win. Conversely if you finish 100-61 with a tie, your team would win the division.

I understand what you're saying, although games where the scores are identical are not considered ties. They're just null in the standings. There's no tying baseball (unless you're Bud Selig at an All-Star game and have no concept of the game).
