If you get a warning like this one:
Click "Done", then open your System Settings and go to Privacy & Security. Scroll down to Security and click "Open Anyway".

All interaction is through the macOS Menu Bar. Click the baseball icon to open the app.
The app defaults to showing the current day's MLB schedule.
The ESPN API (where the app gets the data) changes from the previous day's scoreboard to the current day's schedule usually between 9am and 11am ET (for all leagues except NFL and college football).
The NFL and college football scoreboards are weekly, and they change to the next week's schedule on Tuesdays usually between 9am and 11am ET.
Toggling "Hide Completed Games" under the gear menu filters out any game listed as "Final" or "FT".
To switch to another league:
- Click the gear in the bottom right
- Hover over "Change Sport"
- In the submenu, click the league name
Clicking "Keyboard Shortcut" under the gear menu opens the Keyboard Shortcut popup, which allows you to enable a keyboard shortcut to open/close the widget and to change that shortcut.
