ESPN Sports Scraper

Get live scores, standings, teams, and full box scores from ESPN — across NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college football/basketball, and major soccer leagues. No login, no account, no API key.

Give it one or more leagues and choose what to fetch: today's scoreboard, current standings, the full team list, or a detailed box score for a specific game — including team stats, win probability, odds, and injury reports.
