gids


A character vector with every "gameday" attribute in the "game" element taken from scoreboard files like this one:
<a href="http://gd2.mlb.com/components/game/mlb/year_2011/month_04/day_04/gid_2011_04_04_minmlb_nyamlb_1/miniscoreboard.xml">http://gd2.mlb.com/components/game/mlb/year_2011/month_04/day_04/gid_2011_04_04_minmlb_nyamlb_1/miniscoreboard.xml</a>
Note they are ordered from oldest game to newest game.

With 'pitchRx', one can easily obtain Major League Baseball Advanced
Media's 'Gameday' data (as well as store it in a remote database). The
'Gameday' website hosts a wealth of data in XML format, but perhaps most
interesting is 'pitchfx'. Among other things, 'pitchfx' data can be used to
recreate a baseball's flight path from a pitcher's hand to home plate. With
pitchRx, one can easily create animations and interactive 3D 'scatterplots'
of the baseball's flight path. 'pitchfx' data is also commonly used to
generate a static plot of baseball locations at the moment they cross home
plate. These plots, sometimes called strike-zone plots, can also refer to a
plot of event probabilities over the same region. 'pitchRx' provides an easy
and robust way to generate strike-zone plots using the 'ggplot2' package.
