Jacob Wilson is still perfect.
Wilson and the Athletics beat the Boston Red Sox 4-3 on Sunday afternoon at Fenway Park, which actually gave them their first series win since mid-June. Wilson didn't commit a single error in the contest, either, something he's now done for 111 consecutive games. That set a new Major League Baseball record for a shortstop.
Baltimore Orioles shortstop Mike Bordick held the previous record of 110 games without an error back in 2002. Wilson's last error was back on July 6, 2025. He had five plays in the field in Sunday's win. One of them he even pulled off a catch after colliding with teammate Jeff McNeil while both were trying to track down the ball.
By comparison, Robbie Grossman went 440 games without an error to set the all-time MLB record for a position player. That streak ended in 2022.
"It was a special day for me, but at the end of the day, we got our first series win in a long time against a great opponent," Wilson said, via MLB.com. "We've got to keep that ball rolling."
