[@benmiddleton9984]

he's a headcase

[@antonioacevedo5200]

I disagree with you. He played and stole 9 million dollars from the Cubs. All he was was trouble. One time he caught a ball in right field and threw the ball into the bleachers wrongly believing that there were 3 outs when in reality there were 2. He later made a joke of it.

[@andracatheduckking257]

Good thing they just showed a closeup of Daric Barton the entire fucking time Bradley was arguing

Milton Bradley was a heck of a baseball player with great plate discipline. It's too bad he let his temper get the best of him numerous times.

You have to wonder what the TV director of this game was on. The action was at first base. The announcers were describing Bradley's meltdown that was occurring at First base , but the camera refused to pan toward first base.

[@chrisjones244]

[@thecaynuck4694]

Kept looking at Crosby at short

[@hnc098]

@@chrisjones244100% wrong. They don’t like to encourage fans running on the field so they don’t show that. This was pure incompetence by the camera crew / director. MLB’s own channel uploads clips of ejections going back to when KZbin started so they will do what they can for clicks and money, they don’t care about showing it.

fuck these whiner pussies. swing the bat or strike out

Getting tossed in your first AB with a new team in a tie game with the bases loaded, tearing your acl while getting tossed, getting tossed in a spring training game, and getting tossed twice in a week is an absolutely epic achievement that I cannot possibly imagine will ever be duplicated. The undisputed goat of getting thrown out of games

[@luvfreedom1470]

Not defending the guy but Bradley just seems to be a magnet for shit calls.

[@g8btony]

He was, but he also had a reputation as a trash-talking hothead. His rep followed him everywhere be went, and umpires don't forget that kind of thing.

Obviously idolized Daffy Duck, Donald Duck and Yosemite Sam. He channeling all three every time he lost it during a game. Us Dodger fans unfortunately had to endure this act for two seasons. What a waste of talent!

[@GregTheTerrible]

Eric Wedge was Bradley’s manager in Cleveland, and it was apparently Wedge who demanded that the Indians trade Bradley just prior to the 2004 season because he was such a massive pain in the ass. Seven years later, the two of them are reunited in Seattle, and Wedge has to deal with Bradley’s bullshit all over again (fortunately not for long; the Mariners released Bradley in May and that was it for him).

[@TheFrantic5]

The Parker Brothers never caused trouble like this.

I hope Milton Bradley is doing alright. I feel like umps always fucked with him.

[@ExposClassics94]

[@lastbrewfan]

2011 Brewers, man. Gorgeous George Kottaras with the scattershot throw down to fat Yuni B! How that team won 90-some games with that defense... Prince had the range of a park bench at 1st. Rickie would dazzle on a tough one, then kick a routine 4-3... christ, Mark Kotsay got starts in CF. HE WAS LIKE 50! I miss those guys 😢

[@andysorensen1737]

I’ve gone to baseball games most my life and Milton is the only player I’ve heckled. My wife, who was in attendance, asked why. My response? “He’s a bum. He was a bum with the Cubs and will forever be one.” It wasn’t until years later I learned that Milton and I share a birth town.

[@johnnybondi3906]

That pitch at 2:13 is nasty

[@Burnsengine]

I know Bradley could be a baby at times... but he was a competitor. He did play well for Texas. I liked him while he was here. I didn't care for him anywhere else though. :)

[@jptv21]

Honestly, Bradley had a valid reason to argue all those calls, and you got to respect a guy that isn't going to accept bullshit no matter the consequences. He definitely has anger problems, but damn it I like it.

[@zzzddd]

Honestly, Bradley is being a baby. There is no crying in baseball...

[@mrborgenon]

When Bradley was on the mariners, it was the most entertainment I had while watching them in a long time for all the wrong reasons. It's still hilarious though how he got himself ejected out of the game from plays he wasn't even involved in like that Carlos Silva grounder at Boston. He probably ran out of the dugout and said some stuff to the umpire.

[@gastonveintimilla7850]

He has anger problem

[@sasquatchbigfoot4314]

Kind of looked like Figgins was out. How fun it was to watch baseball for replay reviews

[@antonioacevedo5200]

In the first segment, the director seemed to have an obsession with the Oakland short stop and didn't know that the action was actually at first base where Bradley was. It was a lousy job by him.

[@raythedodger]

His tirades with the Dodgers were far more amusing.

[@Fakename70]

Loved watching The Game as a Dodger!

[@willdraper2901]

Its funny that the guy that was actually thrown out by the ump just accepts it and walk to the dugout without mouthing off, and Then Milton Bradley who was nowhere near the play, gets all pissed off.

Am I the only one who finds the horn in the background funny? I mean if Milton had a theme song/tone that would be it.

[@moegerms]

All kidding aside Bradley should become an MLB umpire (seriously) he's got a good eye. He's a bit of a child about bad calls but they really are bad calls....

[@nickj116]

[@KJT922010T]

Only Milton can get thrown out in spring training

[@mayorgarick]

I always thought Milton Bradley was a scumbag but after watching this video I really feel bad for him! The umpires had it out for him! Horrible calls! Now I understand Milton Bradley's frustration. Umpires didn't help him at all but these videos came after he was known for his temper. Hard to make a change in life if umpires or people keep messing with you. Dropping the bat was no excuse to get ejected! Umpires had it out for him to run him out of baseball!

[@JGun101]

No, he's a scumbag, he freaking killed his wife due to years of domestic abuse

[@Fakename70]

Actually, she had a bum liver and suffered cardiac arrest. Nice try, though, kid.

[@ftl06]

He did beat his wife though

[@rocknrollstar2798]

Except that he is a scumbag. Has beat up both of his wives and served prison time.

[@drewjohnson6004]

Bradley is a punk, but man baseball umps are just so eager to toss people. They take a lot of shit too, but I just don't understand tossing him for dropping his bat.

[@chris7394123]

+Drew Johnson I umpire high school baseball, and I can tell you that umpires as a whole, especially MLB umpires, don't like ejecting people. Whenever I have to eject someone (which is not often), it means that I could have done something better (either I missed a call, or I failed to diffuse a situation). It's not that MLB umpires like to eject people, it's that they have to maintain control of a game with 50 testosterone fueled world class athletes, and managers who's future employment depends on their team winning. It's more difficult than it sounds. Players and managers at that level know what will get them ejected (including showing the umpire up by leaving the bat at home plate), so most of the time, the EJ is really on them.

[@17Helton]

+chris7394123 I'd like to add also that we don't know the history behind any given situation or what may have been said by MB as he was dropping the bat. If Rod Carew dropped the bat like that the umpire would have picked it up for him (respect). Umpires as a whole seem to hunch a bit after tossing a player....(except Balking Bob Davidson he loves it!) They know the creed--fans don't spent $100 to watch the "Blue."

[@SirLikkAlot]

passion and aggression, Never intimidated often feared. I wish he could have relaxed just a little more and enjoyed the game.

[@Chester_Copperpot]

Apparently Bradley never got the chance to watch A League of Their Own. If he had, he would have known that there's no crying in baseball.

[@texknight67]

Bradley played for the Rangers but I was glad to see him go. He couldn't stay in a game because he couldn't keep his mouth shut. One of these ejections was during his very first at bat. No one needs a cry babie like that.

[@MeneTekelUpharsin]

On the first play didn't he make the turn past first base the wrong way? Even if he was called safe couldn't the first baseman just run up to him and applied the tag?

[@douglaspsopak]

It's not merely which way you turn..that is a myth....It is if the umpire judges that he made a conscious attempt to take off to 2nd base. Which in this case it looks like he did...so yes and no to your question.
