pybaseball is a Python package that scrapes and retrieves current and historical baseball statistics from sources like MLB Statcast (Baseball Savant), Baseball Reference, and FanGraphs. It provides convenient functions for pulling pitch-level Statcast data, batting/pitching stats, standings, and awards data into pandas DataFrames.
Use cases
- pull statcast pitch-level data for MLB games
- download historical batting and pitching statistics
- analyze sabermetrics data in Python
- get team standings and records
- retrieve MLB awards data
- scrape baseball reference and fangraphs data without writing scrapers
When to choose
- you need MLB data in pandas DataFrames for analysis
- you want pitch-level Statcast metrics like launch speed and spin rate
- you're doing sabermetric research or sports analytics in Python
When to avoid
- you need data for sports other than baseball
- you need a real-time live game feed API
- you need guaranteed uptime since it scrapes third-party sites that may change
