mlbt – TUI for the MLB Statcast API

mlbt is a terminal user interface for the MLB Statcast API, with the intention of providing a light weight way to consume baseball data.

Check scores, standings, and stats. Even watch a live game using Gameday.

A TUI and baseball data make a pretty natural combination, at least compared to other sports. The Gameday view allows you to “watch” a live game by polling the API every 10 seconds. This matches the poll rate at which the official Gameday operates at. The goal with the TUI version is to mimic the official version as closely as possible.

This is free and open source software.

Features include:

  • Scoreboard and box score:
    • Sorted by favorite team.
    • Selectable date.
    • Win probability graph.
  • Gameday:
    • Pitch display.
