Career

Wilson graduated from Oregon City High School in Oregon City, Oregon, where he now resides. He also attended Christian Center Academy in Colton, CA. He originally enrolled at Oregon State University out of high school, but only attended for one term before deciding to turn pro, never playing for the Beavers.

On June 7, 1992, Wilson struck out three batters on nine pitches in the ninth inning of a 5-2 win over the Houston Astros. Wilson became the 18th National League pitcher and the 27th pitcher in major league history to accomplish the nine-strike/three-strikeout half-inning.

Since his retirement, Wilson has served as pitching coach for a number of minor league teams. His longest tenure to date was with the Salem-Keizer Volcanoes from 2000-03. He currently is the pitching coach for the Arkansas Travelers in the Angels' organization.
