you can use "| ..." notation with Wild--you can only do this with File,
it seems.
So I'd go another route and make your script output everything that
matched your pattern in a way Bacula expects "| ..." to work, and then
just use that with File.
The script should be something like this:
#!/bin/sh
ls -1 "$1/*`date +%y%m%d`*"
