I read today that the St. Louis Cardinals have 55 games to play and 44 days to play them-- assuming they are back on the field Saturday. That's more than the old expression "every day of the week and twice on Sundays". It's a doubleheader every four days. Better cap those at 5 innings each--hey at least it would still be an official game.
