Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh

```

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need quick, structured sports schedule data for one of the six supported leagues (NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, NCAAF, NCAAB) for a specific date, including event times, venues, scores, and broadcast details. It is ideal for daily schedule lookups, sports dashboards, fantasy sports tools, or any agent that needs to answer 'what games are on today?' for major US sports leagues. At $0.01 per call it is cost-effective for frequent daily queries. Prefer alternatives if you need historical stats, player-level data, or play-by-play data beyond what a schedule endpoint provides.

## Known failure modes

- Missing required 'league' or 'date' query parameters returns an error
- Unsupported league code (e.g. 'mls') returns an error or empty result
- Invalid date format (not YYYYMMDD or ESPN format) may return an error
- No games scheduled for the specified league/date returns an empty events array
- Limit value outside 1-100 range may be rejected or clamped
- Upstream ESPN data unavailable causes failure or stale data

## How this service works

Sports schedules for NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL and NCAA - event times, status, venue, scores and broadcasts

## Output

A JSON object containing the requested league name, the queried date, the count of events returned, and an array of event objects with fields such as game time, status, venue, scores, and broadcast information.
