26 of their 52 series are at home — 81 home games. The split is venue-exact: 2 home series against each division rival, 1 against each league opponent, 1 against the Mets, and hosting roughly half of the single-series interleague matchups.
How does the balanced schedule work?
Since 2023 every team plays all 29 opponents each season: 52 series totaling 162 games, weighted toward the division (13 games per rival) with a home-and-away interleague rivalry and single series against the rest of the other league.
When does the 2028 schedule come out?
The league typically releases the following season's full schedule in mid-summer, so the 2028 schedule is expected around July–August 2027. The opponent structure is already fixed by formula.
