Speaking before his foundation's annual gala on Friday night, Torre said it was "surreal" watching the Yankees face the Phillies in the World Series. But he was happy to see some of his former players earn another title.
Torre and his wife, Ali, created the Safe at Home Foundation to fight domestic violence. He says it means a lot that the same people choose to attend the dinner every year and it continues to be successful.
