    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Contributes game-winning hit

    Jacob Wilson went 1-for-3 with a walk-off RBI single and a walk in a win over the Rangers on Tuesday.The rookie drove home Zack Gelof with one out in the ninth inning to snap a 4-4 tie and send the Oakland Athletics home winners in their penultimate night game at Oakland Coliseum. Wilson now has singles in three straight games, but he's shown very little pop since his late-August return from a long IL stint with just four extra-base hits across 86 plate appearances.

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Productive in leadoff role

    Jacob Wilson went 2-for-4 with a triple, a walk and a run in a loss to the Cubs on Monday.Wilson worked out of the leadoff spot for only the second time in his nascent MLB career and made good use of the opportunity. He led the game off with his second career triple, but it was his third-inning walk that led to his run, as Brent Rooker drove the rookie home with his two-run blast. Wilson now has a trio of two-hit efforts in the last nine games, and it remains to be seen if his move up in the order was just an outlier or indicative of where he'll primarily slot in for what remains of the regular season.

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Singles, scores in loss

    Jacob Wilson went 1-for-3 with a walk and a run in a loss to the Mariners on Thursday.The rookie is maintaining an everyday role now that he's healthy, but Wilson has gone just 4-for-25 since returning from the IL on Aug. 27. However, given his elite body of work in the minors -- Wilson hit .433 (90-for-208) this year over three minor-league levels -- it figures to be just a matter of time before he figures out big-league arms.

    Athletics' Jacob Wilson: Singles, scores in return

    Jacob Wilson, reinstated from the injured list earlier in the day, went 1-for-4 with a run in a win over the Reds on Tuesday.The rookie was able to carry over a bit of the offensive momentum he'd generated during his rehab assignment at Triple-A Las Vegas, hitting safely for the second time in as many big-league games. Now seemingly back to full health after recovering from the hamstring injury that felled him after a single plate appearance during his MLB debut back on July 19, Wilson should be in line for some steady run at shortstop down the stretch for the non-contending Oakland Athletics.

    The Oakland Athletics activated Jacob Wilson (hamstring) from the 10-day injured list ahead of Tuesday's game against the Reds.The 22-year-old suffered the hamstring strain during his major-league debut July 19, but he's ready to rejoin Oakland after gong 9-for-23 during a seven-game rehab assignment with Triple-A Las Vegas.

He's split his time in the minors this season between Las Vegas and Double-A Midland, and he's hit .423 with seven homers, two steals, 36 RBI and 44 runs in 48 games between the two affiliates.
