  "account": "The Milwaukee Brewers, leading the majors with the best record, delivered a record-setting 22-0 win over the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night. The team set a modern-era record for the most shutout points with their powerful offense, which included three-run homers from Christian Yelich, David Hamilton, and Luis Lara, along with a two-run shot by Jake Bauers. Despite having the fewest home runs in baseball, the Brewers showcased their ability to hit long balls, as noted by Mariners manager Dan Wilson. The offense also included a five-run fifth inning, featuring a double steal that helped break open the tight game. The Brewers tied their franchise record for runs in a game, matching the 22 runs they scored against the Toronto Blue Jays on August 28, 1992. They also matched the most hits in a single game, with a season-high 22 hits. This thrilling victory marked only the third 22-0 win since 1901, joining games by the Pittsburgh Pirates over the Chicago Cubs in 1975 and the Cleveland Indians over the New York Yankees in 2004.",
