  "account": "Los Angeles Dodgers defeated St. Louis Cardinals 3-2 on Thursday night, avoiding a sweep in their series. Teoscar Hernández secured the win with a dramatic walk-off double in the ninth inning, off Riley O'Brien. The Dodgers took the lead in the fifth inning, with Tommy Edman getting on base and eventually scoring when Mookie Betts walked. Hernández capitalized on the setup, driving in two runs off O'Brien's pitch into center field. O'Brien's save attempt was unsuccessful, marking his sixth blown save of the season. The Dodgers went hitless with eight other runners in scoring positions before Hernández's game-winning hit. This was their eighth walk-off win of the season. Dodgers' star Shohei Ohtani rested due to neck, biceps, and knee issues. Cardinals starter Quinn Mathews allowed four hits and walked four in the game.",
