    very unlikely as the schedule would have to fall perfectly to get the teams having home games at the right moments. i'd say most likely you'd need an extra week or so to get to all 30.

    schedule would be a huge key.

    i'm guessing NY, LA, the Bay area schedule's are like Chicago, where one team is home and the other on the road most days. perfect word, you could do a day night double header in those cities to make up time. might be able to do that with boston/ny or ny/philly or maybe balt/wash

    also, looking at a map, seems like you would either want to start in seattle or florida

    i agree with the extra week.

    Yanks Day game / Mets Night (or the other way) game same day. The old "two birds one stone". Gives you a travel day.

    That plan may work out better in LA where a travel day is actually needed to get to Denver or Pheonix

    Edit: you beat me to my genius idea

    Great idea. But I think you'll need 45 days

    I think with an extra week or so and the schedule falling the right way, it could be done. A couple of day/night doubleheaders would be needed. It doesn't happen often in Chicago, but there are always like 2-3 times a year where it does happen. My friends and I are doing it on June 7th...Cubs, then Sox on a Friday.

    Yeah, we've been talking about doing the red line double header for years and decided to do it once we saw it fell on a Friday this year. Might not remember much of the Sox game. :lol: Usually it falls on a Monday or Thursday when one team is on the way out of town and another just got back in.
