Phil Garner Gave Quotations

We see a true competitor here with Roy. And the way he went about his business tonight gave us great confidence. He went after them. He challenged them. They are powerful from top to bottom, and Roy didn't back down.

He threw the ball down, threw some good breaking balls and went after the hitters pretty good. He had a little mental lapse there. He got behind on a guy and gave up a home run. If we keep him focused and throw like that he'll be fine.

I really think the homer changed Roy. We had the momentum early and gave it back. But when Mike hit the homer, you saw a different Roy. He was aggressive. He got to be the Roy of old.

It wasn't too pretty. We were in trouble the whole night, it seemed like. We couldn't find the plate. When we did we gave up some hits.

The fact of the matter is, he gave up a pretty monstrous home run, ... Best thing we can do is laugh about it, go on with it to the next day and have a little bit of fun with it.

It's surprising, but he only gave up one decent hit. The others just rolled through the infield.

His consistent play, his consistent hitting all year long -- and he's played pretty solid defense. He had a period in there where a couple of balls gave him a little bit of trouble, but he's been playing a pretty solid defense.
