Things went very well in the surgery and he's in Georgia with (wife) Jennifer and the baby and things are well. He will address the press when he gets back.

[Phil Garner 's wife, Carol, was struck on the wrist last week by a bat that went sailing into the stands. But Mrs. Scrap Iron is going to be OK.] She just got a bruise, ... Just sore. She's never been able to go on the DL.

If I have a 10-month-old baby and he's just gone through his second surgery, it's 3 a.m. and he's having trouble feeding, who can I call? A Pathfinder, of course!

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.

These guys are tough, I'm telling you. I don't recall any easy games against them. But we'll take it because it was important.

He had us in a hole all night. He found the strike zone and he said, 'hit it,' and we didn't.
