I don't see how Bob Wolcott wins that game had Dan Wilson not been behind the plate.

When I say Dan Wilson is one of the good guys, for me, that's the ultimate compliment. Very few of us, in all walks of life, rarely say and do the same thing. There's nothing phony about Dan Wilson. He talks the talk and walks the walk. Anytime someone like that leaves, we're all worse off for it.

He could not find the plate. We took him out as early as we could.

I think we saw the result of not pitching in a game. Even at that, they only got two hits off him. But he was behind a lot of hitters and threw a lot of pitches.

We saw the result of him not pitching in a game for 14 days. Even given that, he gave up only two hits.

We got too far behind.
