  "account": "MILWAUKEE, WI - OCTOBER 03: Jackson Chourio of the Milwaukee Brewers hits a two-run home run in the third inning, securing a 3-2 victory for the Brewers in Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the San Diego Padres. Chourio, just 22 years old, already has the most postseason home runs of any player in Brewers franchise history. The momentum shifted in Chourio's favor after a leadoff single from Garrett Mitchell, allowing Chourio to drive in the run in his first career postseason home run. The Brewers then had multiple chances to add to their lead, but were unable to capitalize until William Contreras hit a go-ahead home run with two outs in the bottom of the seventh inning, pushing the score to 3-2. The series will continue on Sunday with a 3 PM first pitch for Game 2.",
