What changed after the preview

The earlier version of this article described a probable-pitcher listing before the game. MLB’s official game record now confirms the result: the Athletics won 4–2, and Jump was credited with the win.

Jump’s pitching line

MLB recorded Jump at 6 1/3 innings, two earned runs, three hits, two walks and nine strikeouts. He left in the seventh inning with the Athletics ahead 4–1; Minnesota scored once more after he exited, but the bullpen preserved the lead.

Why it matters

The nine-strikeout outing turned a pregame search around a probable starter into a completed-game result. The update is limited to this August 25 game and does not project Jump’s next start or season finish.
