Jacob Wilson atoned for hitting into a triple play with a two-run double that sent the Athletics on their way to a 7-4 win over the struggling Colorado Rockies on Saturday night. Wilson's double in the sixth dropped on the left-field line and gave the Athletics the lead after trailing 3-0. In the second inning, Wilson sent a chopper to Ryan McMahon that the Rockies third baseman turned into a 5-4-3 triple play.

The Colorado Rockies turned the fifth triple play in franchise history in the second inning Saturday night against the Athletics. With two on, Jacob Wilson sent a one-hopper to third baseman Ryan McMahon, who started the 5-4-3 triple play.

The moment didn't seem quite real even when 23-year-old right-hander Chase Dollander was told he was heading to Coors Field to make his major league debut with the Colorado Rockies. Dollander, the organization's first-round pick in 2023, will have his contract selected and make his first appearance Sunday against the Athletics. “I’m pumped and ready to go,” said Dollander, a hard-throwing hurler out of the University of Tennessee who was the ninth overall draft selection.

Jacob Wilson hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the 11th inning for his third RBI, and the Athletics beat the Colorado Rockies 6-3 Friday in a snowy home opener at Coors Field. Flurries fell throughout the game and the temperature at first pitch was 37 degrees, tying for the second-coldest home opener in Rockies history. After getting swept by the Chicago Cubs in the first three games at their temporary home in West Sacramento, California, the A's improved to 3-2 on the road and stopped a four-game losing streak overall.

Van Thompson walked through the busy concourse shortly before first pitch and sang along to the national anthem, a white Athletics ball cap in hand covering his heart. Earlier Wednesday morning, Susan Falcon took her dog out on the other side of town near a bustling coffee shop and raved about the positive vibe the A's have brought to California's sports-crazed capital city in such a short time. On the fly, former minor league pitcher Jarod Pavese packed up two of his three daughters and the boyfriend of one and headed north from Southern California's Riverside County for a last-minute spring break trip to cheer their Chicago Cubs in the series finale. Despite some kinks still to be worked out, the A's relocation is providing fans who might not regularly go to games a big new opportunity to see the big leagues live.

This season will be my very first as an A's fan where they'll call another city their home. Today I'll be highlighting Oakland's all-time leaders in Opening Day starts... which is something permanently set in stone unless the A's return to the East Bay sometime in the future.

Right-handed pitcher Carlos Duran moved to the Oakland Athletics when the team acquired outfielder Esteury Ruiz from the Los Angeles Dodgers. The Oakland Athletics designated 26-year-old Ruiz for assignment before completing his transfer to Triple-A Oklahoma City. The Dodgers added Esteury Ruiz from the Athletics after moving Kyle Hurt to the 60-day injured list to recover from his Tommy John procedure.
