## How this service works

League table and standings for a major sports league, normalized to one cited JSON. Give a league such as mlb, nhl, nfl, nba or epl and get each team with wins, losses, win percentage or points, games behind, streak and its division or conference group. Sourced from official league APIs and ESPN.

## Output

A normalized JSON object listing every team in the requested league with their current standings data: wins, losses, win percentage or points (depending on sport), games behind the division/conference leader, current win/loss streak, and their division or conference group — all sourced from official league APIs and ESPN.
