Take July 12's box score of the Yahoo MLB page for Yankees vs. Tampa Bay as example, the id for this page was assigned as 270712130 by Yahoo, we could see 0712 as the date and 130 as the number of the game. If we could get the rule, we could view almost all the games of the past years.What's the rule of numbering of the Yahoo MLB box score pages?
If you want box scores from past seasons, just visit baseball-reference.com or retrosheet.org. Both provide box scores dating back to the 19th century.
Otherwise, Yahoo's id breakdown is as such:
27- the year without 0's
7-the month
12-the day
130-random id ranging from 100 to 400
