Although I haven't posted here in a month, I've been working on the site almost every day. I got the box score working at the bottom with batting and pitching stats, and also with the list of scoring plays. It also shows the current pitcher, batter, and next two batters. The scoreboard on the left has had the pitching results added (W/L), as well as a link to MLB.tv. On the top just right of the line score, I added links to MLB.com, MLB's page for the game (preview, gameday, or recap depending on status), MLB's standings, /r/baseball, and links that take you to Cricfree's stream of the game (MLB.tv doesn't work on my Chromebook). I also changed the colors to make them more eye-friendly. The site has gotten to the point of being very useful and I can't think of any more easy things to add.
I could add more details from the game, such as pitch locations and play-by-play, but I could get the same thing from MLB Gameday. I'm thinking of making a page with only the best video highlights, but that would require storing data somewhere. I could also look into making the site mobile friendly, but I've never even had a reason to use it on my phone so I'm not sure that's worth my time. I'm leaning towards moving on to another project that is more data intensive instead of web development.
