Historically, doubleheaders have been played in immediate succession, in front of the same crowd. Contemporarily, the term is also used to refer to two games played between two teams in a single day in front of different crowds and not in immediate succession. </p><p>The record for the most doubleheaders played by a major-league team in one season is 44 by the <a href="/wiki/Chicago_White_Sox" title="Chicago White Sox">Chicago White Sox</a> in <a href="/wiki/1943_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1943 Major League Baseball season">1943</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-Karpinski_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Karpinski-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Between September 4 and September 15, 1928, the <a href="/wiki/Boston_Braves" title="Boston Braves">Boston Braves</a> played nine consecutive doubleheaders – 18 games in 12 days.<sup id="cite_ref-Karpinski_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Karpinski-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Doubleheader_(baseball)&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>For many decades, major-league doubleheaders were routinely scheduled numerous times each season. However, any major-league doubleheader now played is generally the result of a prior game between the same two teams being postponed due to inclement weather or other factors.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Most often the game is rescheduled for a day on which the two teams play each other again. Often it is within the same <a href="/wiki/Series_(baseball)" title="Series (baseball)">series</a>, but in some cases, may be weeks or months after the original date. On rare occasions, the last game between two teams in that particular city is rained out, and a doubleheader may be scheduled at the other team's home park to replace the missed game. </p><p>Currently, major-league teams playing two games in a day usually play a "day-night doubleheader", in which the stadium is emptied of spectators and a separate admission is required for the second game. However, such games are officially regarded as separate games on the same date, rather than as a doubleheader. True doubleheaders are less commonly played.<sup id="cite_ref-:0_4-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-:0-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Classic doubleheaders, also known as day doubleheaders, were more common in the past, and although they are rare in the major leagues, they still are played at the minor league and college levels. </p><p>In <a href="/wiki/1959_Major_League_Baseball_season" title="1959 Major League Baseball season">1959</a>, at least one league played a quarter of its games as classic doubleheaders. The rate declined to 10% in 1979. Eventually, eight years passed between two officially scheduled doubleheaders. Reasons for the decline include clubs' desire to maximize revenue, longer duration of games, five-day pitching rotation as opposed to four-day rotation, time management of relievers and catchers, and lack of consensus among players.<sup id="cite_ref-Sports_Illustrated_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Sports_Illustrated-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Types_of_doubleheaders">Types of doubleheaders</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Doubleheader_(baseball)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Types of doubleheaders"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Official_Baseball_Rules" class="mw-redirect" title="Official Baseball Rules">Official Baseball Rules</a> used by <a href="/wiki/Major_League_Baseball" title="Major League Baseball">Major League Baseball</a> (MLB) discuss doubleheaders in section 4.08.<sup id="cite_ref-obr_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-obr-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 16–17">: 16–17 </span></sup> The document makes mention of "conventional" and "split" doubleheaders.<sup id="cite_ref-obr_6-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-obr-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup class="reference nowrap"><span title="Page / location: 16">: 16 </span></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Conventional">Conventional</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Doubleheader_(baseball)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Conventional"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In conventional doubleheaders, a spectator may attend both games by purchasing a single ticket.

Such an occurrence is typical when two teams lack a mutual off day to make a game up in the same ballpark, but have a series at the visiting team’s ballpark that it can be made up during. This can also happen if the game is between an East/Central team and West team to prevent a team from having to travel across the country to make up a game. Due to MLB rules, both games are considered home games for the team whose stadium the games are played at.
