I'm sitting here with my hair wet again and somewhat disturbed because, um, Stan Conte grabbed my behind in the clubhouse. That felt slightly less weird than Manny Ramirez grabbing my chest not during a celebration, but a random pre-game session. For those of you still wondering, I'm a dude.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting Joe Torre brought this up during his conference and also during television interviews.

"I can't thank the veterans on this club for stepping aside," Torre said. "Jeff and Nomar and Juan, I mean, they made my life a lot easier to write a lineup without their names in it."

Pierre doesn't appear to have gotten very wet during the past two clubhouse celebrations, and Kent has been staying out of the way.

That didn't stop owner Frank McCourt from pulling Kent aside in the clubhouse tonight.

"I'm happy with what you've done to help this team," McCourt told him. "Thank you."
