Wilson was far more interested in playing soccer than baseball when growing up, and would have gone pro in that sport if he'd thought there was sufficient money in it. My friend is a trainer for the MSL Seattle Sounders, and says that when Wilson was playing for the Mariners, he showed up at the Sounders training site on a couple of occasions to hang out with the players and take part in informal scrimmages after practice.

Meanwhile... another kick was good today...
