The MLB season consists of 2430 games (162 per team). This does not include the postseason playoffs which can add up to 20 additional games. Determining how many games are left in the season depends on what point in the season you are talking about. For example, as of the first week of August, each team has approximately 50 games left in the season.
In baseball, more than any other sport, numbers matter. Here: 56, .400, 3,000. If you're a serious student of the game, you know what those mean, instinctively, without context or clarification. Now, with MLB's collective bargaining agreement set to expire after the 2016 season, another number is getting attention: 162. For more than 50 years, that's how many games have been crammed into the regular-season schedule. It's a grind, a marathon, a spring-to-autumn endurance test.
