The Wyatt Masoning refers to the event that occurred at the Season 3 election results in which the entire team roster of the Unlimited Tacos inexplicably assumed the name of the team's worst hitter, Wyatt Mason.
Analysis
Little is know about the definite cause of the anomaly, though it is suspected to be heavily related to the passing of the Interviews decree, which declared the following:
- ERROR: The Grand Unslam Weakened The Bridge
- Spacetime Tears over Los Angeles
- The Infinite cit(ies) shine
- Platonic Form Corrupted
- You've looked too close...
The tear in spacetime is the source of the Tacos' name change from the Los Angeles Tacos to the Unlimited Tacos, but there is no apparent reason that Wyatt Mason would be directly targeted as a part of this event.
Though the decree is widely accepted as the cause of The Wyatt Masoning, fans have alternatively speculated that the Tacos receiving the Anticapitalism blessing during the Season 3 election may also be a cause. Some speculate that upon becoming "fully anticapitalist," the team members all took worst-hitter Wyatt Mason's name in solidarity.
Outcome
Though the whole team now bears the name Wyatt Mason, none of their original stats changed (other than Wyatt Mason née Comfort Glover, who suffered a loss in stats from the Exploratory Surgeries blessing during the Season 3 Election). The players also retained all of their individual, newly-revealed Interview statistics and characteristics, suggesting that they are still the original Tacos players in at least some form.
Shortly after the event, Umpire Chaff made a statement directly to Tacos fans that said:
WE TRIED TO KILL THE MASON, AND THE MASON'S POWER EXCEEDED OURS. THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY. [...] I FEAR THE MASON[2]
It is assumed that the umpire referenced the original Wyatt Mason and not any of the other team members newly-dubbed Wyatt Masons, nor the collective Wyatts Mason. What the nature of this "power" is has yet to be seen, as statistically Mason is still one of (if not the) worst players in the entire League.
History of Wyatt Mason
Going into Season 3, the original Wyatt Mason was a middling two-star hitter for the Tacos. Mason swallowed a peanut and had an allergic reaction on Season 3 Day 50, and then swallowed another peanut for another allergic reaction on Season 3 Day 64. This double-peanutting left Mason as the worst hitter on the team, dropping Mason to one-half star.
Mason is one of the only known players to have swallowed two peanuts, and possibly the only player to have swallowed a peanut in two separate games. Other than this, Mason was a relatively unremarkable figure in Blaseball and had gained no reputation as a fan favorite or heel.
