  "account": "Michael Harris II secured a crucial victory for the Atlanta Braves as he hit a tiebreaking single in the 10th inning, leading the Braves to a 2-1 win over the New York Yankees. The Braves staved off a three-game sweep, with Harris' RBI single coming after Trent Grisham had tied the game in the eighth inning. Matt Olson had opened the scoring with a homer off Cam Schlittler’s 100-mph fastball in the seventh. Schlittler, who allowed Olson’s 34th homer, struck out 11 batters in seven innings, including nine at 100 mph or faster. The Braves' defense also shined, with Ronald Acuña making a strong throw from right field and Ha-Seong Kim easily scoring the tying run in the 10th.",
