Move to 162 game schedule

Since MLB had already moved to a 162 game schedule for the 1961/1962 expansion, why does the Aftermath section claim that it was decided in 1968? BruceME (talk) 14:42, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The leagues had planned on changing the number of games played because of the introduction of the new teams, but ultimately decided on 162. I included some incorrect content when I originally wrote it, and have amended it for clarification. Mind matrix 16:26, 3 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
