Description
Am getting a 404 trying to request pre-season box scores, for example this request: <a href="/mlb/boxscore/20150312-miami-marlins-at-minnesota-twins.json">/mlb/boxscore/20150312-miami-marlins-at-minnesota-twins.json</a> Is this data only available in the regular season or are you working on this?

Quoting directly from <a href="/api/methods/mlb-box-score">/api/methods/mlb-box-score</a> This method returns the box score for an MLB game. Box scores are available for regular and postseason games. The recommended way of downloading box scores is in conjunction with the Events method. For each Event, check its event_status for completed and season_type for either regular or post. When these values are true, the box score is available to download. get events for each event in events: if event_status is completed and season_type is regular or post: get box score
