KeyError: 'linescore'

[elijahgatchalian]

I got the following error when trying to get information on a game that was postponed:
line 148, in schedule 'current_inning': game['linescore'].get('currentInning',''), KeyError: 'linescore'

Here's the code I used to generate this error:
game_day = statsapi.schedule(team=136,start_date='05/11/2018')

Another postponed date that throws a different error is 04/08/2018.

Thank you for pointing this out. I should not assume the linescore node is present in all cases, so I am checking in a fix for v0.0.8. I will check the 4/8/18 postponed game to see what's going on there too.

The game on 4/8/18 is failing because there was no probable pitcher listed for the home team. See #6.
