Milton Bradley, a controversial journeyman outfielder employed by the Texas Rangers, has once again found a way of making headlines. After Wednesday’s game against the Kansas City Royals, Bradley stormed upstairs into the press booth to confront KC television announcer Ryan Lefebvre upon hearing comments that he deemed slandering of his character.
“It was a conversation about how Josh Hamilton has turned his life around and has been accountable for his mistakes,” Lefebvre told The Associated Press. “Right now, it seems like the baseball world and fans are rooting for him. … It doesn’t seem like Milton Bradley has done the same thing in his life.”
After being intercepted by manager Ron Washington in the press booth, Bradley went back down to the clubhouse and burst into a tear laden tirade.
“I’m tired of people bringing me down,” Bradley said. “It wears on you. I love you guys, all you guys. I’m strong, but I’m not that strong. All I want to do is play baseball and make a better life for my kid than I had.”
Milton Bradley is completely bizarre, and seems to have even more issues than his extroverted surface would show.
