The wild pitches were consecutive. A runner got from 2nd to home on them, well played. (update The game is still going on , Tiburones 21 Tigres 7. Hill's seven spot is joined by a bunch, including eight off Justin Berg, who got two outs, but allowed six hits and three walks. Berg committed his own error to start the 7th, and then a home run, so at least one run will be unearned.)

Also in Venezuela, Angel Guzman lasted just four innings against Caracas. Two runs scored on a homer, and he allowed three walks, four total hits and struck out three. I saw part of Angel's outing, and his control was off and he fell behind hitters consistently. Oh, and the home run was by none other than Matt Murton.
