They retired the HTTP version of their application in December. The Raw schedule is all you can get over HTTP now.

You can connect via TCP and pull their complete schedule/lines/scores and get updates. You must have a DonBest account in order to connect.

If you want to buy some code that already does this, I have some. Windows Service written in C#.

No idea about that URL. Doesn't look like something I'd rely on.

You once could retrieve lines from this URL, but it is not there anymore.

http://exojava3.donbest.com/platinum/servlet/getfile.servlet

Parsing the TCP stream is really not very difficult, it will cost you $99/mo (for the express version) but is a lot more useful than polling by HTTP.

The raw schedule BTW, is posted only daily and will not reflect write-in games, pitcher or time changes during the day.

The raw schedule has always been openly free, although of somewhat limited utility.

The only reason I can't find the link to it on their website is they've redesigned a few too many times.
