Not much has been going right for the Colorado Rockies this season. With a 1-6 record and being outscored 30-14 in their seven games, it’s been a tough start for them. However, top pitching prospect Chase Dollander is set to make his MLB debut on Sunday, which brings some excitement.
In a game against the (Sacramento) Athletics, the Rockies managed to pull off a flawless 5-4-3 triple play in the second inning. It was a rare and smooth defensive play that delighted fans.
The A’s shortstop, Jacob Wilson, who hit into the triple play, had not struck out in 29 plate appearances this season until that moment. Sometimes putting the ball in play can have unexpected outcomes, as it did for Wilson.
This triple play was the first by the Rockies since 2015 and the last time the A’s hit into a triple play was in 2021. It was a moment that added some excitement to the game.
Triple plays are rare occurrences in baseball, and this one was the first of the 2025 season. In the previous seasons, there have been a few triple plays, but they always remain a thrilling spectacle.
