Clint Hurdle Situations Quotations

He moved around pretty well. It wasn't in a game-like situation, but we tried to create some situations where he had to get off the mound and cover bases, and everything went pretty well.

We've got options. We've created depth all winter to take care of any situations like this. It's very unfortunate. But it has happened, and we'll deal with it accordingly.

There comes certain situations where I think a manager has an opportunity to make a statement to his team. You don't want to miss them. I might have missed one with (Cory) Sullivan earlier in the season.

That's just one of the toughest situations I put myself in, having to take him out and putting in a pinch-runner. It worked to my favor tonight.

There were games early in the season where we crumbled like a house of cards in situations like that. These guys are willing to pick one another up and that is a big improvement with this team.
