  "account": "In a rain-delayed game that concluded past midnight, the New York Yankees defeated the Atlanta Braves 3-2 in extra innings thanks to a clutch rally in the 10th inning. With two outs and the game on the line, Ben Rice hit a tying single off the right-field fence. Ryan McMahon then delivered the decisive blow with a sacrifice fly in the 10th, propelling New York to a 3-2 victory. This marked the Yankees' first win in an extra-inning game since their eight-game winning streak ended. Pitcher Max Fried delivered a scoreless 6 1/3 innings in his first matchup against his former team, while Tyler Mahle matched him with a shutout in his Atlanta debut. Austin Riley and Matt Olson also contributed with home runs, providing the Braves a 2-0 lead early on. Despite the rain delay of over an hour and 55 minutes, the Yankees managed to rally and secure the win.",
  "summary": "New York improved to 2-8 in extra-inning games, halting an eight-game winning streak overall for the NL East leaders.",
