  "account": "The Boston Red Sox arrived at Yankee Stadium with hopes of pressuring the Yankees in the first game of their best-of-three American League Wild Card Series. However, New York dominated, securing a 9-0 victory over Boston. Cam Schlittler struck out 10 over 6 1/3 innings, while Ben Rice delivered two home runs and six RBIs. The Red Sox managed only three hits and one walk throughout the game, never producing the sustained offensive threat needed to counter New York's pitching. Despite a brief moment of hope, Boston's offense faltered, leading to a decisive series lead for the Yankees.",
  "summary": "Boston managed just three hits as Cam Schlittler and Ben Rice put the Red Sox one loss away from elimination.",
