  "account": "The Winnipeg Goldeyes' championship hopes were dashed in a dramatic ninth inning against the Fargo-Moorhead RedHawks. Closer Derrick Cherry, known for his 18 saves, faltered, issuing a walk, throwing a wild pitch, and then walking another to load the bases. RedHawks outfielder Matt Kroon then hit a home run to seal the victory and advance the RedHawks to the divisional final. The Goldeyes, who had a strong regular season record of 54-46, will now wonder what could have been after a promising playoff run.",
