# 20 team schedule, 162 games
# Designed for the following configuration:
# 2 subleagues, each with 2 division, each with 5 teams
#
# 18 games against other 4 teams of division (9H/9A)
# 10 games against other 5 teams within league (5H/5A)
# 4 games against 10 teams of league (2H/2A)
#
#
# Schedule contains many 2-game series, which are mostly paired up
# and put at the beginning of weeks when they do occur. There are
# four weeks during which the first half of the week has only a
# 2-game series on Tue-Wed preceded and followed by an offday.
#
# This configuration and quantity of short series rather limited
# the variety in the distribution of offdays. Besides the examples
# just cited above there are not other cases of all teams being off
# at the same time (except the All-Star Break), but at the end of
# every week all teams will have played the same number of games.
#
#
# No cases of more than 20 straight days without offday
#
# Homestands and roadtrips stretch as long as 14 games
#
# 90% of weekday (Mon-Fri) game times set at 7:05pm (remainder 2:05pm)
# 70% of weekend (Sat-Sun) game times set at 2:05pm (remainder 7:05pm)
#
# Season begins first Monday on or after April 1st
# Season ends late September/early October
#
# All-Star Game set for first Tuesday on or after July 9th
