I realize that schedule doesn't really matter unless you want historical accuracy, I just wanted to see what kind of numbers I got compared to you, TF.
You only need to change it to 154 games for 1904, drop it down to 140 games for 1919, and put it back up to 154 games in 1920. No further changes are needed until you get to 1961, where you set it to 162. Note that this higher number is necessary because of the AL's longer season; the NL will still have it's 154 game schedule for that year. You simply need the higher value to accommodate the AL.

Note that if you want to have a shortened 1918 season, you can do that. An alternative file which ends on Labor Day (as the real season did) is in the schedules folder. Just import that schedule instead of the full-length one; note though that teams will be playing differing numbers of games. It ranges from 124-132, with the average being 127.
