MLB API - Mound Visits, Reviews, & Delay Duration

February 10th, 2025

We have made a few updates to account for mound visits, reviews, and delays in MLB games. Game endpoints will now feature the below data points.

  • Game Delay Duration (game.delay_duration)
    • Duration of a game delay in hours and minutes (ex. 0:18)
  • Home/Away Mound Visits Used (mound_visits.home.used or mound_visits.away.used)
    • Number of used mound visits for the home/away team
  • Home/Away Mound Visits Remaining (mound_visits.home.remaining or mound_visits.away.remaining)
    • Number of remaining mound visits for the home/away team
  • Home/Away Reviews Used (reviews.home.used or reviews.away.used)
    • Number of used reviews for the home/away team
  • Home/Away Reviews Remaining (reviews.home.used or reviews.away.used)
    • Number of remaining reviews for the home/away team
