I've been watching this thread, but no one has responded, so I'll write why I think this may be the case. Haha, I'm with you on this...my chest has some catching up to do.
I just read "
How to increase your RAW Bench". It's an article written by Matt Reynolds posted by 0311.

To increase your raw bench you must understand which muscles are most important for raw benching. It is not the chest or pecs as most people think, but rather the shoulders and triceps. The muscles to be worked (in order of importance) are:
1) Triceps and Shoulders
2) Chest
3) Lats, Upper back, and Rear Delts
4) Rotator Cuff: prehab

Soooooo....even if you're not doing bench press three times a week, if you have a shoulder/back day, then you're going to be working some of the same muscles.
It's a good article..read it if you haven't already. It reminded me of a couple of things that I need to be paying more attention to.
