  "account": "In a nail-biting AL Division Series matchup, Drew Rasmussen delivered a one-hitter performance for the Tampa Bay Rays, as they edged out the New York Yankees 1-0. Rasmussen, a 31-year-old righty, went the distance in seven and two-thirds innings, allowing just one hit and striking out ten batters. With two outs in the eighth inning, Austin Wells doubled, but his attempt to score was thwarted by a relay throw to third baseman Junior Caminero. Rasmussen's dominant outing marked his first postseason victory since recovering from Tommy John surgery earlier that year. The Rays, who played their 2025 season at Steinbrenner Field after Hurricane Milton damaged their home stadium, will face the Yankees again in Game 2, with RHP Griffin Jax or Freddy Peralta set to start.",
