Season data based on EST instead of UTC

I recently signed up and I'm using the eventsseason API to pull the schedule for my app. However, the schedule seems to be in UTC time, so any game that is too late in the US is showing as the following date when I pull the data. However, the times aren't in the data, so I don't know how to translate it. Do I need to just use a different API to get the correct dates based on the US date and time?

All UTC times are in the data I believe. You just need to somehow convert to local time.
We even have a local date and time field when you lookup by event ID.
