  "account": "Garrett Mitchell delivered the tiebreaking run in the fifth inning and made a crucial catch on Manny Machado's eighth-inning drive, as the Milwaukee Brewers dominated the San Diego Padres with a 3-1 victory, advancing to the National League Championship Series for the second consecutive season. Mitchell also contributed to the Brewers' first road playoff win since 2018 by driving in Sal Frelick. The Brewers' perfect season concluded with four close games decided by a combined five runs. They will now face the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLCS, where they previously lost to the Dodgers in the 2020 World Series.",
