Since I still use Clover, I didn't have anything entered here (it's listed as blank "N/A" in the Clover parameters) and not included in my Clover config file at all. After googling, it looks like this is a 17 digit number with the first 12 being my Mac's serial number, and the last five being random. Is this correct?
I have a feeling I may be able to simply leave this blank, but I entered my Mac's serial + "12345" for the MLB.
Either that, or I could enter "Oakland Athletics" as my favorite "MLB" team.
Just wanted to check before editing this config file and testing things out.

I have found an invaluable tool for editing OpenCore config.plist files is OpenCore Configurator. I rarely use any other pliist editor because its graphical interface is so easy to use.
As shown below, one can simply select from a pop-up list (red arrow) the desired "System Product Name" desired, and the values of System Serial Number, System UUID, MLB, etc. are automatically generated and populated. Then using the "Check Coverage" button one can confirm that the generated MLB is in fact a dummy serial number and not assigned to an Apple-manufactured Mac.
As you have found, for testing purposes only, your dummy values probably have no negative consequences. I've always used the Configurator's generated values for PlatformInfo.
