As usual, however, the Senators scheduled the most night games, 44. They also will start their night game program earlier than the other teams, scheduling one against the Athletics on April 19 six days after the season opens.

The Senators scheduled 50 night games last season. Baltimore will have 33 night games, six less than the Browns played in St. Louis last season. The Athletics scheduled 37 night games, the same as last year, while the Indians will have 30, one less than last year, and the White Sox 21, against 20 in 1953. The Yankees will play 16 night games, two more than they ever have scheduled in any previous season, while the Red Sox and Tigers held the line with 14 night games each.
