I was able to get the 21 splits into either 11H/10A or 10H/11A to minimize the variance in that. There were only a handful of 2-game series, and most of those are in the first few days, a first few days that have a few oddities of consecutive offdays for teams, something that is required in some cases like this with odd-number-of-team divisions. The worst bit I think is in each league a team that plays an opponent in the first two days, then it off, then plays that same opponent on the weekend in the other park. Other than that I think it turned out well, at least for that distribution of games.
Compared to the modern MLB 162-game layout I started the season two weeks later (mid-April), ended it a week earlier (late September), and put the All-Star Break a week later (late mid-July). Let me know if this still is not quite what you would like or if you would like the layout shifted around.
