"He's (Rafael Bournigal) a gamer; he gives exactly what he's got. He's limited. He doesn't have a whole lot of quickness. But he consistently makes the routine plays. That's why he'll always have a job until he stops doing that." - Ron Washington (Steve Kettman, Bournigal Helped Make a Name for His Father, 6/10/1997)
