If you went with 9 games against each team (15 others) in one league, that gets you to 135 games. Then you could play 21 interleague games (3 games against 7 opponents). You'd have to maneuver home and away a little bit, but it's doable.

If I were you, I'd go to 156 without interleague. That would be easier to schedule, in my opinion.
OK, without taking a deep dive to figure out schedule making, let me ask you this: if I upped the schedule to 158, could that accommodate interleague play? Then I would imagine for my league, I would have Interleague play happen once every five years. On years without interleague play, I would run a 156 game schedule, then for the season with Interleague play, I’d run 158, if it could be done.

I’m sure the players union would cry a river, but in my universe I imagine I am Darth Vader and I can make baseball players do anything I want.

(Edit: my crude math tells me 158 wouldn’t make much of a difference. But I’m terrible at math.)

Do you need that schedule to be made or were you going to do it yourself?
Look, if someone was nice enough to make one for me that would be great. But I wouldn't trouble anybody for it.

Part of me thinks I should just read a few tutorials and try myself, although I’d probably need to get a spreadsheet program to do it.
