Bradley Shows No Remorse At Oakland Outburst
Milton Bradley faces possible suspension after throwing his bat and helmet at umpire Brice Froemming in the eighth inning of a 6-2 loss to the Athletics. Bradley defended his strike calls, argued with coaches, and drew criticism from radio hosts and teammates. Manager Eric Wedge and third base coach Joel Skinner restrained him, while Froemming defended his umpiring and noted Bradley was penalized for equipment throwing rather than verbal abuse. Bradley cited left hander struggles and past incidents as context for the confrontation.
