He has not been used a lot recently. He needed to throw tonight, so he was going to have to go. I actually debated bringing him in in the seventh if we had gotten in trouble. He was going to have to work hard tonight.
More Quotes from Phil Garner:
Astacio did a good job today. A real good job today. Astacio kept them down and he kept us in the ballgame, and then we broke it open. ... We've been saying it all along, if we take care of business, we don't have to worry about the other teams.Phil Garner
The way he went about his business gave us great confidence. He went after them, he challenged them.

He's not really had to make a throw, we've only had one throw from a first baseman all spring. While he's probably throwing about what I expected right now, he's still got a ways to go. He hasn't had to make a throw to second, hasn't had to make a quick, hard throw and we don't know what's going to happen until that happens.
Phil Garner
He had not been pitching on a consistent basis, ... Even though he had given up only two hits, he had gotten behind a lot of hitters.
Phil Garner
We're not in the best of situations, obviously, but we feel pretty good. We've got a history of being able to do it. We're coming back to our ballpark where we played pretty well. But bottom line is we need to step up and do it.
Phil Garner
We missed some pitches that we should have hit, and we expanded the (strike) zone sometimes when we probably shouldn't have. But the bottom line is they did a pretty good job of pitching against us.
