\n\u201cYeah,\u201d Wheeler said to Gelb. \u201cI was upset.\u201d<\/p>\n
About what?<\/p>\n
\u201cGetting taken out of the game,\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cObviously,\u201d Wheeler said. \u201cI feel like I\u2019ve earned that.\u201d<\/p>\n
Did he talk to Mattingly about it?<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cNope,\u201d Wheeler said.<\/p>\n
Will he?<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cI don\u2019t know,\u201d Wheeler said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
After his removal, Phillies left-hander Kyle Bachus allowed one of Wheeler’s inherited runners to score.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Wheeler did not have his best stuff on a hot and muggy Wednesday evening, but neither did Pirates ace Paul Skenes. Both failed to go five innings to qualify for the win, but Skenes (4.0 innings) did take the loss in the game.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Tossing 4 and 2\/3 innings on Wednesday marked the first time in 53 games that Wheeler did not finish a full five innings in a game. However, he did leave with 10 strikeouts.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
