Best Answer

"Interleague" games between AL & NL occur every season. It varies since all teams have unique schedules, there's no finite number to be played. Normally, most interleague games are clustered towards midseason-for logistic reasons. All teams play @least one series against opposing league, but routinely vs a few teams. Matchups seem randomly set, but most likely there's a format & rotating schedule ensuring all teams eventually meet eachother. In the spirit of tradition & history, priority for regional rivalries is given, i.e. "Bay Bridge Series" between AL's Oakland Athletics & NL's San Francisco Giants. These matchups usually consist of 2, 3 or even 4 games per series played at each teams ballpark, with weeks or even months passing between both series.

To answer the question: No less than 3 games, no more than 16, per team per season.
