Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the MLB Stats API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the MLB Stats API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fmlb.com%2Fmlb" | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL "https://jentic.com/install.sh?src=apis&api=%2Fapis%2Fmlb.com%2Fmlb" | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use MLB Stats API for, with concrete tasks.

★ AI agent baseball data access via Jentic

An AI agent connected through Jentic answers baseball questions without browsing the MLB Stats API reference. It searches by intent such as getting a schedule or standings, Jentic returns the matching operation with its input schema, and the agent reads schedules, rosters, and leaders to build a response. The developer's own Jentic One instance supplies any configured credential at call time.

Call GET /api/v1/schedule for today's games, then GET /api/v1/standings/{standingsType} to add the current standings

Live scoreboard and schedule feeds

Sports apps and bots show today's games and results. The schedule operations return games by date, season, or schedule type, including postseason and tied-game schedules, so an agent can render a scoreboard and link each game to its venue and status.

Call GET /api/v1/schedule/postseason to list postseason games and GET /api/v1/venues/{venueId} for venue detail

Roster and player research

Fantasy and analytics tools need current rosters and player stats. The API lists a team's roster, coaches, and personnel, returns players for a sport level, and serves player and team statistics, letting an agent compile a player profile with season and historical numbers.

Call GET /api/v1/teams/{teamId}/roster for a team, then GET /api/v1/teams/{teamId}/leaders to add its stat leaders

Advanced stats and analytics

Analysts want tracking-derived metrics, not just box scores. The analytics operations return spray charts, outs above average, and stolen-base probability, and the stats search surface supports grouped and metric queries, so an agent can pull Statcast-style context for a batter or situation.

Call GET /api/v1/stats/analytics/sprayChart for the current batter and GET /api/v1/stats/leaders for a chosen statistic

Key Endpoints

194 endpoints — the mlb stats api serves official major league baseball data: team rosters, player and team statistics, game schedules, live standings, venues, transactions, and seasons.

Why Jentic?

What agents get from Jentic-routed access to this vendor.

Setup

Wiring the MLB Stats API by hand means working across nearly two hundred read operations, picking the right schedule, stats, and standings paths, and handling the two declared HTTP schemes. Through Jentic you install once, import the MLB Stats API from the API Directory, and your agent calls the operations it needs.

Permission scoping

The MLB Stats API is a read-oriented data surface, and you choose which operations the agent may call. A rule can keep it to the schedule, standings, roster, and stats reads, so the few state-changing operations such as updating alumni or clearing status types are not reachable unless you add them.

Credential isolation

Any MLB Stats API credential you configure is stored once, encrypted, by your own Jentic One instance and injected at execution time. It never enters the agent's prompt, logs, or context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search Jentic by intent such as 'get the MLB schedule' or 'read league standings', and Jentic returns the matching MLB Stats operation with its input schema so the agent calls the right endpoint without browsing the reference docs.

FAQs

Specific to using MLB Stats API through Jentic.

What authentication does the MLB Stats API use?

The MLB Stats API declares two HTTP schemes in its OpenAPI spec, basic and bearer, as alternatives on its operations. When a request does carry a credential, Jentic stores it encrypted in your own Jentic One instance and injects it at execution time, so it never enters the agent's prompt or logs.

Can I get game schedules with the MLB Stats API?

Yes. The schedule operations return games by date, season, and schedule type, including postseason, tied-game, and tracking-event schedules. An agent can read the schedule and then link each game to its venue, status, and standings context.

What are the rate limits for the MLB Stats API?

The OpenAPI spec does not specify numeric rate limits. Check the MLB Stats API documentation at https://docs.statsapi.mlb.com for current usage guidance before running high-frequency schedule or stats polling.

How do I get standings through Jentic?

Search Jentic by intent such as getting league standings, and it returns the MLB Stats standings operation with its input schema. Pass the standings type, read the response, and combine it with a schedule call for a full scoreboard. To run it on your own infrastructure, install Jentic One from its GitHub repo.

Can I limit what my agent is allowed to do with the MLB Stats API?

Yes. The surface is read-oriented, and you choose which operations the agent may call, so a rule can allow only the schedule, standings, and stats reads it needs and exclude the few state-changing operations such as updating alumni or clearing status types. Every call it makes is logged by your self-hosted instance.

Is there an MLB Stats API MCP server?

You do not need an MCP server to give your agent the MLB Stats API. Jentic connects it directly from the API Directory: import it, and your agent calls the schedule, standings, and stats operations on demand without loading another server's tool definitions into its context.
