Wild-pitch was the most egregious element of that sequence.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
"I prefer the probable future reliever with a fastball and change, but no breaking ball!"

I mean, I'd take the fastball guy on the odds, but still, second-tier pitching prospects are a coin flip.
I actually think that was an impressive inning by Wilson. Rizzo had an amazing AB leading off. Baez did make hard contact. But the hits by Heyward and Caratini were just the BABIP gods doing their thing. I thought he handled the adversity well.

At his age it doesn’t have to be the slider. It could be something new. I’m not saying it will happen. I’m saying it’s too early to make assumptions about limitations on his development when there are clearly positives. An excellent fastball he can locate is a great block to build from.

Cargo out 2 times in 1 AB. Ks for 1st out, gets tossed out for arguing strike call.
Hard to do that. A real rarity.
Markakis is great at hitting into DPs; Olympian, even. "God of DPs". Google it.

Ball bounces hard off that Gold Glove.

How many fluke RBI's have they had today?
Wilson pitched a lot better than his runs line today.
Odd to double-switch out Donaldson so early. Edit: nevermind: Chip's just an idiot.

4th and 5th runs where BS. Still, he’s gonna need another pitch beside the fastball to navigate MLB lineups more than once.
It’s crazy that a ball can be fair and bounce into the stands there.
