cannot import name 'pitching_stats' from partially initialized module 'pybaseball' (most likely due to a circular import)

Working also on my end.

any update @cruzjon2024

I have a guess that it's because you have a file named pybaseball.py in your working directory and when you do from pybaseball import pitching_stats it's assuming you mean your local file and not the pybaseball module - can you try renaming that file to something else, pybaseball_script.py, or something?
