# 16 team schedule, 162 games
# Designed for the following configuration:
# 2 subleagues each with 2 divisions, each with 4 teams
#
#
# 26 games against each of 3 other teams in division (13H/13A)
# 13 games against each of 4 other teams in league (6-7H/6-7A)
# 4 games against each of 8 teams in other league (2H/2A)
#
# Games are very roughly evenly spread among 2-game, 3-game, 4-game series
# Usually 5-6 but as few as 4 games in a week per team
# Teams may have 2 and even rarely 3 consecutive offdays
# Only league-wide offday is day of All-Star Game
#
# Last week of series is 7 doubleheaders for all teams (14 games in 7 days)
#
#
# No cases of more than 14 straight days without offday
#
# Homestands and roadtrips stretch as long as 17 games
#
# All game times set at 7:05pm
#
# Season begins first Thursday on or after April 1st
# Season ends mid-October
# Spans two and a half weeks longer than typical modern MLB season
#
# All-Star Game set for first Tuesday on or after July 20th
# Only single offday and not multi-day break
# ASG is surrounded for each team by games of a 2-game series
