There are 30 Baseball teams in the Major Leagues. 15 of them are in the National League and 15 in the American League. Each league has an even number of teams to allow all teams to play within their league for most of the season and to allow to have at least a minimum of one Interleague Play game daily with the exception of off days. All divisions have a total of 5 teams each.
