Baseball Match Scraper — Scores & Match Intel

Baseball scores and full match context from Flashscore, structured for automation and AI agents.

Match Intel — the full picture per game (flag enrich: true). Turn any game into a complete report: full match statistics (per half/period where leagues report them, plus game totals), starting & winning pitchers, recent form & head-to-head, competition standings, venue/city — and optional bookmaker odds comparison (opt-in via odds: true): default markets 1X2, Over/ Under, Asian Handicap (the live-betting decision markets), more markets selectable via oddsMarkets. Bookmaker ids, handicap/total lines and odds movement included — best-effort: availability varies by market and region (US/EU datacenter IPs see the widest coverage).

One run returns every game of a day (default: today) across 100+ competitions — MLB, NPB, KBO, CPBL, internationals and more — as clean JSON rows, one per game. Browse ±3 days, filter by league or status. Live games report the current inning (5th Inning, Top 3…) and running score at scrape time.

Enrichment blocks (enrich: true)

• statistics — game & period statistics rows (hits, errors, batting/pitching lines where the source provides them)
• h2h — recent form (last N games) + head-to-head meetings between the two teams
• standings — competition table when available (incl. Japan's split-season formats)
• venue / city / capacity
• odds — opt-in, scheduled/live only, default 3 markets (1X2, Over/Under, Asian Handicap)

Pricing & notes

• Pay-per-event, billed per returned game: list mode pushes one row per game (a 100-game day ≈ 100 match-listed events ≈ $0.10). No subscription, no per-run fee.
• Enrichment billed per enriched game as match-intel.
• Live games report current inning, score and pitcher line at scrape time.
• Status normalization: Finished, After Extra Innings, Postponed, Suspended, NPB Draw…
• Odds & statistics availability varies by league and region — graceful nulls, never a crash.
