I am a Generation Xer. I remember scheduled double headers. But greed got rid of that.

Ah, yes. I remember double-headers.

If they're not going to bring them back, maybe it's time to go back to a 150 game season.

I know, I know. Neither of those things is going to happen.

To be fair, remember that scheduled doubleheaders were largely a relic of the era when teams traveled by train. Teams scheduled so many doubleheaders in those days because they needed more off days to travel between cities on road trips.

I looked this up, and apparently the record for most doubleheaders played in a season was 44 -- by the 1943 Chicago White Sox. That number is even more remarkable when you compare it to the length of the schedule at the time. Teams played a 154-game season back then, so the White Sox played 88 of those 154 games in doubleheaders!
