List of Northwest League champions


The Northwest League of Minor League Baseball is one of two Class A Short Season baseball leagues in the United States. A league champion is determined at the end of each season. Champions have been determined by postseason playoffs, winning the regular season pennant, or being declared champion by the league office. Currently, the first- and second-half winners within each division meet in a best-of-three series to determine division champions. In the event that the same team won both halves of the season, the team with the second-best winning percentage for the entire season is eligible for the playoffs. Then, the North and South division winners play a best-of-five series to determine a league champion.
