  "account": "In a thrilling Game 1 of the World Series, the Milwaukee Brewers edged out the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2. Trevor Megill, pitching for Milwaukee, saved his best for last, striking out Jonny DeLuca with men on base in the ninth inning, preventing a potential Rays comeback. The inning saw a controversial double play overturned via replay, as it was determined that Brewers shortstop Cooper Pratt's foot was slightly off the bag when he fielded a throw from second baseman Brice Turang.\n\nJacob Misiorowski, the Brewers' ace, kept the Rays' offense in check, allowing just one run over five innings and earning the win. Christian Yelich ignited the rally with an RBI triple in the first inning, setting the stage for a two-run surge that firmly put the Brewers ahead for good. Jackson Chourio and William Contreras contributed with two hits each, and Contreras also demonstrated defensive prowess by throwing out two potential base stealers.\n\nThis marks the first World Series featuring two teams that have never won a championship, since 1980 when the Philadelphia Phillies defeated the Kansas City Royals in six games. The only other MLB franchises without a World Series title are the Colorado Rockies, San Diego Padres, and Seattle Mariners. Historically, the team that wins Game 1 has gone on to claim the World Series title 62.8% of the time.",
