The ticket for the $50 million Powerball jackpot drawn on Wednesday was purchased at Lexington Shell on Waltham Street.

Mass. Lottery spokesperson Beth Bresnahan said there was just one winner nation-wide.

Lexington Shell will get a $50,000 commission for selling the ticket.

This is the second time a Powerball jackpot was won in Mass. The first was a $25 million jackpot sold in June 2011 in Fall River.

Powerball has been played in the state since Jan. 2010.
