Phil Garner Turned Quotations

No, I don't like the way that game turned out, but we still control our destiny.

If we had won 10 in a row to get a one-game lead right now, I'd be happy as all get-out. No, I don't like the way that game turned out, but we still control our destiny.

I didn't like the way that game turned out, of course not. Still, we control our destiny. We have to play hard, tighten it up a little bit.

When you look back, there were a couple of points during the game where it could have gotten real close. It turned out OK, but I thought it was going to be real easy.

You don't want to dig yourself a hole we can't get out of. It looked like we'd done that last year, and it turned out we played our best ball the last part of May through the rest of the year.

The big blow was Willy. For me, that turned out to be the game's turning point.

I moved him for Morgan. When he came back from the hand injury, I wanted him in a position where guys are going to have to pitch to him and he's going to get pitches. I switched him back because I didn't think he was swinging the bat that good. I prefer to have Lance in that third hole and as it turned out today, Morgan came through big.

The umpire said he went to his mouth. It was a bad call. It was a mistaken call. It's unfortunate that the game, in my opinion, turned on that. You don't know what's going to happen, but it takes it out of the players hands. He did not go to his mouth. He was sweating profusely on his face. He wiped his eyebrow (and came) across his nose and caught it on his face. It was a bad call, plain and simple.
