City Bikes vs MLB Records and Stats

City Bikes (CityBik.es) aggregates real-time bike-share data for 700+ networks worldwide into one JSON API, covering station locations, available bikes and e-bikes, free docks, and GBFS feed links where a network publishes one. It's free and keyless -- the only condition is crediting the CityBikes project and linking back to it from any app built on the data.

This entry documents MLB's own `statsapi.mlb.com` backend -- the same undocumented, keyless JSON API that powers MLB.com and its official apps -- covering teams, rosters, schedules, box scores, standings, and decades of historical stats, reverse-engineered and mirrored in the community `mlb-data-api-docs` reference. There's no official support or SLA since MLB never published it as a public product, but it has stayed stable and free for years. A live probe of the real host returned data with no API key and a wildcard `Access-Control-Allow-Origin`, resolving `cors: unknown -> yes` and correcting `https: false -> true` -- the stored `false` was stale, the host is https-only.
