Note to Torre

| | Comments (0) |

When Joe Torre arrived in his office after the Dodgers' Opening Day 5-0 win over San Francisco, he found a note on his desk. It said: ``We eat, we win.'' It was from B.C. - Billy Crystal - who's a good friend of Torre's.
``That goes back a long time,'' Torre said. ``We had lunch one day, and we won the game that night. I don't know if it's superstition. It's more an expression than reality. Now, if we just if we talk about eating together. He's a dear friend.''
Speaking of eating, Torre said he would go out to eat tonight with his family, which included many of his relatives from Cincinnati. He said he has many favorite eateries in L.A. because you can sit outside. However, he said his group will probably be in the back of a restaurant somewhere.
