Returns a baseball match's top performers from SofaScore: each pitcher or batter (`role`) with a rating, their team and a snake_case map of the statistics that earned the mention (for example pitching strike outs, batting home runs and runs batted in). Returns 404 when SofaScore has no top performers for the match, which includes matches that have not started and sports other than baseball.

SofaScore event baseball top performers

Response behavior

- Each performer has a `role` (`pitcher` or `batter`), a `rating`, the `player`, the `team` and a `statistics` map of snake_case metrics that earned the mention (pitchers: `pitching_innings_pitched`, `pitching_wins`, `pitching_strike_outs`; batters: `batting_hits`, `batting_at_bats`, `batting_home_runs`, `batting_rbi`). The keys depend on the performer, so the map is not a fixed set. - The list held one pitcher and two batters on the match checked; it is not guaranteed to cover both teams. - Returns `404` when SofaScore has no top performers for the match, which includes matches that have not started, an empty list, and sports other than baseball.
