Implodes versus Mets Wilson allowed five runs on four hits and one walk without retiring a batter in Saturday's loss to the Mets.

Impact The left-hander was called upon in the sixth inning with the Mets ahead by three runs. Wilson couldn't keep the game close, allowing three straight singles followed by a walk and a double before departing with the Yankees down 6-0. Both baserunners he passed on to Michael King soon came around to score, and Wilson was charged with five total runs in the outing. His season ERA jumped to an ugly 8.79 as a result, and he has given up at least one earned run in three of his past four appearances.

Impact Following an extended rain delay, Wilson was brought in to relieve starter Domingo German in the fourth inning. The left-hander made easy work of the three batters he faced, needing only 10 pitches to set the side down in order. Wilson should settle back into the team's bullpen plans moving forward, though he may not receive frequent high-leverage opportunities -- through 16 appearances, he has logged just two holds and one save.
