That would most likely be a very simple fix.

In this part of the script:

var a = document.createElement("a");
a.setAttribute("href", 'http://www.thebluealliance.net/tbatv/team.php?team=' + match[2]);
a.appendChild(document.createTextNode(match[0]));
span.appendChild(a);

Add in one extra line:

var a = document.createElement("a");
a.setAttribute("href", 'http://www.thebluealliance.net/tbatv/team.php?team=' + match[2]);
a.setAttribute("target",'_blank');
a.appendChild(document.createTextNode(match[0]));
span.appendChild(a);

Note that I have not tested this yet.

This should force the browser to open the link in a new window, which Firefox should default to open in a new tab instead. (Yeah, yeah, I know the target attribute is depreciated in XHTML, but I really don't care when it comes to Javascript until the new CSS3 standards come out, when they actually plan to implement a target-new: tab; CSS property for links.)
