  "account": "In a dramatic finish to the game on Wednesday, Garrett Mitchell managed to snatch Manny Machado's potential home run at the center field wall of Petco Park. The San Diego Padres were trailing the Milwaukee Brewers 3-1 with only five outs remaining in the eighth inning. As the tying run, Machado came to bat, and reliever Abner Uribe threw a sinker towards the bottom of the zone. However, Machado connected with the ball, sending it 406 feet to the right center field spot under the marine layer, seemingly setting up a game-tying home run. Mitchell promptly reached back over the fence and grabbed the ball from the hands of fans, ending the potential scoring opportunity for the Padres. Machado was visibly upset after the play, removing his helmet in frustration. The Padres came up short in their final attempt to keep their season alive, as they took the loss to the Brewers.",
