Brian Patrick Wilson (born March 16, 1982 in Londonderry, New Hampshire) is the closer for the San Francisco Giants of Major League Baseball.

Wilson made his major league debut on April 23, 2006, against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. In his debut, Wilson pitched two innings, surrendering two hits and no runs while striking out three batters.

Wilson competed with Armando Benitez for the closer role in spring training 2007, but Wilson's 7.71 ERA caused the Giants to send Wilson back to the minors. After spending much of the 2007 season in AAA Fresno, Wilson was called up in August. He was immediately used as the Giants' setup man, and was promoted to closer in September when Brad Hennessey began to struggle. Wilson converted six of his seven save opportunities and became the Giants' full-time closer in 2008. As of July 22, 2008, Wilson is tied for the lead in National League in saves, converting 25 of his 27 opportunities.

On June 6, 2008, Wilson was named to the All-Star team for the first time. Wilson gave up no hits and struck out one in 2/3 innings.

  • @55CuTiEPiE13 Idiot. Casey Blake mocked Wilson's tribute to his late father after he pitches-any decent human being does not do that. Giants fans don't talk shit about Blake because he's a fucking dodger, but because he acted like a shitty human being in that situation, period. Fuck teams at that point-you simply don't poke fun at the death of a man's father.
