  "account": "Zack Wheeler struck out 11 opponents, including a franchise-record seven straight strikeouts at the beginning of the game. Bryson Stott hit a crucial RBI single to tie the score in the eighth inning, advancing the Philadelphia Phillies closer to securing a postseason berth. The Phillies ultimately prevailed 6-4 over the Milwaukee Brewers, who needed a win or a loss by the Cincinnati Reds to clinch a wild-card spot and secure home-field advantage for the NL Division Series. Brandon Marsh contributed with a three-run performance, hammering a home run, a double, and driving in three runs. The Brewers' Brandon Marsh homered, doubled and drove in three runs, while William Contreras added three RBIs for Milwaukee. The Phillies began play trailing the Padres and Cubs by one game in the NL wild-card race but now sit ahead of both teams.",
