Yes, from the “if it was anyone else, this would probably be satire” file comes the latest from Manny Ramirez, who didn’t watch the Phillies’ ninth-inning comeback Monday night. Why? He was showering up.
Manny Didn’t See The Phillies’ Game Four Comeback; He Was In The Shower
↵↵When asked prior to Tuesday’s workout how surprised he was to see Jimmy Rollins beat the Dodgers with a walk-off double into the right-center gap the night before, Ramirez said he was in the shower at the time.
↵“When I came out, they were turning the TVs off and everybody was coming in,” Ramirez said.
↵↵Joe Torre has already come to Manny’s defense, pointing out that the slugger had been subbed out of Monday’s game and was officially done anyway. He gave the usual “Manny Being Manny” line. Which, again, is the only way to make sense of this story. Outrage wouldn’t do it comedic justice.
