Function: boxscore_data
Note: To retrieve a formatted text version of the box score, see Function: boxscore.
Note: This function uses the game endpoint instead of game_box, because game_box does not contain the players' names as they should be displayed in the box score (e.g. Last name only or Last, F)
statsapi.boxscore_data(gamePk, timecode=None)
It is possible to get the boxscore as it existed at a specific time by including the timestamp in the timecode parameter.
The timecode should be in the format YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS, and in the UTC timezone
For example, 4/24/19 10:32:40 EDT (-4) would be: 20190425_012240
A list of timestamps for game events can be found through the game_timestamps endpoint (using the get function):
statsapi.get('game_timestamps',{'gamePk':565997})
