DOIN’ FINE, THANKS: After managing the last-place St. Louis Cardinals for part of the season, does former Angels broadcaster Joe Torre yearn for the security of the broadcasting booth? . . . Nope. “It’s a nice, safe situation,” he says, “but you don’t get a chance at the elation--or the misery--of managing. . . . When you leave the broadcast booth, you don’t know if you won or lost.” Managing the Cards, on the other hand, Torre’s record was all too plain: 24 wins and 34 losses.
