There's no question that 600-pound gorilla was in the room that no one wanted to talk about. If you keep going innings without scoring runs, everybody tries to do too much in one at-bat, and that's when you start to get into trouble. That's when it becomes a team slump. It was nice to answer in the first inning. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

We wouldn't win all these games if Berkman was hitting the ball, but it has something to do with it. That means you can get around Morgan Ensberg.

You've got to tip your hat to David Eckstein. He plays the game as hard as you can play it. On the other side, you don't like him because he really gets in your hair, but you appreciate what he does. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
Was that his ninth win That's pretty good. You've got a guy who didn't figure in your rotation at the start of the year and when he gets in he's won more than he's lost, so that's pretty good. He pitched a nice crisp game tonight. He threw strikes, he gets ahead. That gives a team a lift. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

I think Mike Gallo did a wonderful when he came back from Triple-A last year and carried us down the stretch as the only lefthander. It would be my preference to have two lefties, but that's not set in stone. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
a disregard for the comfort of our fans. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

Houston will go crazy and it will be a wonderful thing. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
I want him to be in the 15-win range, maybe six or seven games over .500. My only criticism, if I have one, is that he gets behind hitters during the regular season. He doesn't do that in the playoffs because he is aggressive and gets ahead of the hitters. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

Nobody pitches better in the playoffs than he does. My one criticism, and I only have one, is he pitches behind hitters too much in the regular season and he doesn't seem to do that in the playoffs. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes

I was happy to see the way he threw. We did not see that at all in spring, but from the first pitch I knew he was feeling good. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
He threw the ball well. I was very pleased. He had good mound presence, threw the ball over the plate and after probably six or seven pitches, it looked like he said, 'Alright I'm going at them,' and he did. He just settled right in. He didn't go deep in the count a lot of times. He went right after them and made them do something. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
He might have thrown 10, 20 innings, and I'm honest with you when I say that. I think he was prepared to do whatever it took. I've never seen anyone like him. He's amazing. - Phil Garner Visit FamousQuotes.com for more inspirational quotes
I'm not worried about that. I don't think that will be a major issue. I don't see that we would lay back and wait on Roger to make a decision.
