Schema Reference

This is the core of PyMLB StatsAPI - a comprehensive reference for all 21 MLB Stats API endpoints, automatically generated from JSON schemas.

Why Schemas Matter

Unlike traditional API wrappers with hardcoded methods, PyMLB StatsAPI dynamically generates every endpoint and method from JSON schemas. This means:

✅ Zero hardcoding - all methods are generated at runtime from schemas

✅ Self-documenting - schemas define parameters, types, and validation rules

✅ Easy updates - updating schemas automatically updates the entire API

✅ Type-safe - automatic parameter validation from schema definitions

Note

These schemas were sourced from the MLB Stats API Beta documentation (https://beta-statsapi.mlb.com/docs/), which is no longer publicly available.

What You’ll Find Here

Each endpoint page includes:

• Overview of functional and non-functional methods

• Detailed parameter documentation with types, required/optional flags, and descriptions

• Working Python code examples for every method

• Schema introspection examples showing how to explore the API programmatically

• Clear warnings for non-functional methods
