Disclaimer: This Actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Major League Baseball or any of its subsidiaries. All trademarks mentioned are the property of their respective owners. "MLB" is referenced only to describe the publicly available website this Actor collects data from.

Scrape Major League Baseball data from the official public stats API: division standings, teams, game schedules with scores, and player bios by season. Clean, authoritative data - JSON, CSV or Excel. No login, no API key, no browser.

Why this actor exists (demand): the MLB / baseball-data niche draws ~1,000+ monthly users on Apify Store across a fragmented field. This actor reads the official MLB stats API directly, so it is fast, reliable and complete - for sports analysts, bettors, fantasy players, journalists and model builders.

What you can scrape

Mode	What you get
Standings	Division standings - wins, losses, PCT, games back, division/league rank, streak, run differential.
Teams	All 30 MLB teams - name, abbreviation, location, league, division, venue, first year of play.
Schedule	Games in a date range - date, teams, score, winner, status, venue.
Players	All players for a season - name, position, number, bats/throws, age, birthplace, height/weight.

Example input

{ "mode": "standings", "season": "2024" }

{ "mode": "schedule", "season": "2024", "startDate": "2024-10-01", "endDate": "2024-10-31" }

Use with AI assistants (MCP)

Available through the Apify MCP server - ask for "the 2024 AL East standings" or "MLB games on opening day" as structured data.

Agent-ready: autonomous payments (x402 & Skyfire)

This actor is agent-ready - AI agents can discover it, run it, and pay for it autonomously, with no Apify account and no human in the loop. It uses pay-per-event pricing and limited permissions, so it qualifies for Apify's agentic-payment standards:

• x402 - an open, HTTP-native payment protocol. Agents pay per run in USDC on the Base network directly through the Apify MCP server - no account, no API key.
• Skyfire - agent-to-service payments for fully autonomous AI-agent workflows.

Pricing

Pay-per-event, tiered by volume: standings/teams/games from $0.002, players from $0.003, dropping to a quarter of that at the top tier.

Automate & schedule

Run this Actor on autopilot and pull results into your own stack:

• Apify API - start runs, fetch datasets and manage schedules over REST.
• apify-client for JavaScript and apify-client for Python - official SDKs.
• Schedules - run it hourly, daily or weekly and keep your dataset current.
• Webhooks - trigger downstream actions (CRM import, Slack alert, email sequence) the moment a run finishes.

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: 'MY_APIFY_TOKEN' });

const run = await client.actor('scrapesage/mlb-scraper').call({
    "mode": "standings",
    "season": "2024"
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(`Got ${items.length} records`);

Integrate with any app

Connect the dataset to thousands of apps - no code required:

• Make - multi-step automation scenarios.
• Zapier - push new records straight into your CRM or spreadsheet.
• Slack - get notified when a scheduled run finds something new.
• Google Drive / Sheets - auto-export every run to a spreadsheet.
• Airbyte - pipe results into your data warehouse.
• GitHub - trigger runs from commits or releases.
