Episode Notes
Brian Wilson joins Murph & Markus for a deep dive into the art — and pressure — of pitching in high‑leverage moments. From the mental grind of the ninth inning to the mechanics of what makes a dominant closer, Wilson brings firsthand insight from his years anchoring the Giants’ bullpen. The conversation explores how relievers handle constant stress, why some pitchers thrive under the spotlight, and what separates a good closer from a great one. Murph & Markus also dig into the Giants’ current bullpen challenges, examining how today’s relievers are navigating tight games and what the team needs to stabilize the late innings.
