Using the Realtime Sports MCP server (https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/mcp), call get_schedule with sport "baseball" and league "mlb" for the next 14 days and list the Chicago White Sox games (team id 4) with dates and opponents; then call get_live_events and tell me if they are playing now.

Connect the hosted MCP server first: setup guide.

FAQ

How do I get live Chicago White Sox scores in JSON?
Call GET https://www.realtimesportsapi.com/api/v1/sports/baseball/leagues/mlb/events/live with a free API key and keep the games where homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id is "4". The live endpoint returns the score, period, clock and status for games in progress. Data is aggregated from public sources and is typically 20-30 seconds behind live play (about 1 second after our source). There is no SLA.
Is there a free Chicago White Sox API?
Yes. The Free plan of Realtime Sports API is $0 with 1,000 calls in the first 30 days, then 125 calls per month, no card. The same key covers every MLB team and the other leagues.
What is the Chicago White Sox team id?
"4" in league "mlb" (sport "baseball"). Use it with /sports/baseball/leagues/mlb/teams/4 for team details and /sports/baseball/leagues/mlb/teams/4/roster for the roster, and to filter events by homeTeam.id or awayTeam.id.
When is the next Chicago White Sox game?
Chicago White Sox host Cleveland Guardians on Wed, Oct 7, 4:00 PM ET at Rate Field. Times are US Eastern; this page refreshes hourly.
Does the API include Chicago White Sox betting odds?
Yes, for upcoming MLB games that have a line: GET /sports/baseball/leagues/mlb/events/{eventId}/odds returns the spread, moneyline and total from a single source book, and /odds/history returns line moves. It is not a multi-book comparison feed.
Can I get Chicago White Sox score alerts pushed to me?
Yes, on paid plans: register a webhook for event.score_change and event.final filtered to league "mlb", then keep deliveries where data.homeTeam.id or data.awayTeam.id is "4" (webhooks filter by league, not team). WebSocket works the same way.
