It was great to see a young guy like Brandon Phillips have the kind of night that he did. He's a very talented baseball player. He's got all the abilities. We'll just have to see if, at the major league level, he can be consistent. |
It was his game. No way. |
It was nice coming in here and getting two, |
It was nice coming in here and getting two. To beat clubs that have a chance to win the Wild Card or their division is outstanding. |

It was one of those days where it seemed like whoever was going to hit last was going to win. |
It was outstanding to see Merck out there. He threw really well. |
It was poor management on my part. I should've gone out after the second one and said, 'Don't try it unless you can make a strong, accurate throw.' I should've told him before the game. |
It was real big. I thought his velocity was better. I thought he kept the ball down much better than he has in the past. |
It wasn't too long ago that Brandon Phillips was one of the best prospects in baseball. If you have a chance to get that type of player, you take a chance. |
It will be mainly them. Dewayne Wise will play some. |
It will not be before Wednesday. |
It would be nice to have Griff back in the lineup. We'll see where that is day-to-day. I don't know if he'll be out there [Sunday] or not, but we definitely miss him. |
It would be nice to have Griff out there. We need somebody at the top of the order. I don't know, maybe he'll play tomorrow. |
It would be nice to have Griffey back in the lineup. We definitely miss him. |
