A regular baseball season will have 162 games in total. Compare that to an NFL season with 16 games and it is no surprise that baseball seasons can involve some pretty irrelevant games. The sheer length of a baseball season can make the sport seem exceedingly boring, especially when you realize how long each game lasts. In the NFL, each game seems to matter more as it can make or break a team’s season but that barely seems to be the case in baseball.
