  "account": "Milwaukee Brewers secured their fourth consecutive NL Central title with a 5-1 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Jacob Misiorowski, the flamethrowing right-hander, struck out seven in five shutout innings, lowering his ERA to 1.89 and improving his season strikeout total to 243. Joey Ortiz and Luis Lara contributed two runs each for Milwaukee. The Brewers, who have been postseason contenders for the past decade, are now a guaranteed postseason team, securing their eighth playoff appearance in nine years.",
  "summary": "Jacob Misiorowski struck out seven in five shutout innings and the Milwaukee Brewers won their their fourth straight National League Central title with a 5-1 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Tuesday night. Milwaukee trimmed its magic number to claim the division to one. The Brewers could wrap up it up later Tuesday if the Chicago Cubs lose to Atlanta.",
