Manny Ramirez was apparently so confident his Dodgers were going to beat the Phillies last night, he didn't even bother to stick around to watch the ending.

Either that, or he completely loses interest when he's no longer playing. From Fox Sports:

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. Philadelphia's 5-4 victory gave the Phillies a 3-1 series lead and put Los Angeles on the brink of elimination. Ramirez started the game in left field and went 1-for-4 with two runs scored before Juan Pierre replaced him for defensive purposes.

Los Angeles manager Joe Torre wasn't surprised or upset that his star player didn't watch the conclusion of Monday's game. "Manny has so much confidence," Torre said. "When we get a lead late in the game, and I've taken him out, whether it be for defense or we have a big lead, when we go up to shake hands after the game, he's in his street clothes.

Maybe this is commonplace, but it struck us as pretty odd that he wouldn't watch the final moments of an immensely important playoff game.
