The American League gets the better of the National league, once again. This year the overall record is 137-114. Not as bad as last year as the AL was 46 games over against the NL.

The best team in interleague play in the AL was the Angels at 14-4. The worst was a tie between the A's and Indians at 5-13.

On the senior circuit, the Rockies were best at 11-4. The Diamondbacks, Mets, Brewers, and Padres all tied with the worst interleague record in the NL at 5-10, while the defending World Series champion Phillies went 6-12.

The Sox finished 11-6, and have a chance to add one more victory to that total against the Cubs come September.

The Rockies always seem to do well in interleague, so I looked it up. Here are their last 4 years against the AL:

2009: 11-4
2008: 7-8
2007: 10-8
2006: 11-4
Total: 39-24

2006 seems even more impressive considering that the Rockies were the only NL team with a winning record in interleague, when the AL dominated 154-98. Wow.

Has there ever been a year the AL didn't win?
