Wilson's Error Overturned to Hit, Errorless Streak Intact
An official scoring change reversed an E6 call on Jacob Wilson, keeping his MLB-record errorless streak alive for the Athletics shortstop.
Jacob Wilson was initially charged with an error on a wide throw to second base during a recent Athletics game. The official scorer subsequently overturned the ruling, crediting Wilson with a hit instead. The reversal preserves Wilson's consecutive errorless games streak, which had been reported as a Major League record for shortstops at 112 games. The correction has no negative defensive impact on Wilson's record.
