  "account": "New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge celebrated Tuesday's game by securing the team's 34th consecutive winning season. This streak, second-longest among the four major U.S. professional sports leagues, puts the Yankees in a unique position. Their last losing season was in 1992, and the team has consistently qualified for the postseason ever since.\n\nJudge, who returned to action this year, expressed his team's ultimate goal beyond the impressive winning record. \"We're the Yankees, we're gonna win,\" Judge declared after the game. \"That's a great streak, but everybody in this room is worried about championships.\"\n\nWhile Judge had a strong postseason last year, helping the Yankees reach the World Series, they fell to the Los Angeles Dodgers. This season, with Judge sidelined for most of it, the Yankees are positioned as one of baseball's top teams. They have a prime opportunity to claim the American League title and return to the Fall Classic. As the team captain, Judge understands that the ultimate objective extends beyond a successful regular season.",
