Schedule Characteristics:
SCHEDULE type="ILN_BGY_G120_T8_C_" inter_league="0" balanced_games="1" games_per_team="120" start_month="5" start_day="19" start_day_of_week="3"
Each team plays 120 games. Teams play each other from 16 to 18 times.
Season starts on May 19 and ends on September 13. Weekday games start at 7:00. Weekend and holiday games start at 1:00. Double-header games start at noon and 3:00, except for split home-and-home double-headers on July 4 between Mayfield and Paducah and between Jackson and Lexington which start at 10:00 and 3:00.
This schedule posed a number of problems. The biggest had Cape Girardeau and Jackson playing three straight double-headers. That was clearly a mistake, but there was no obvious solution, so I deleted one game and reassigned another to an open date.

This will be the last schedule that I post here for a while as I turn my attention to another project. Time permitting, though, I still intend to post here sporadically.
