Bradley was in the Cubs' lineup Saturday, a day after he was sent home by manager Lou Piniella following an angry outburst in the dugout. Piniella ordered the mercurial slugger to go home Friday afternoon after Bradley threw his helmet and went after a water cooler following a fly out in the top of the sixth inning of the Cubs game against the crosstown rival White Sox. Advice: Piniella reportedly directed an expletive toward Bradley. "He didn't really talk to me about it, he just kind of yelled at me in the dugout and told me to get out of there," Bradley said Saturday. "So I left. Then he continued to yell at me some more. I've got to take that." Bradley confirmed a report in the Chicago Sun-Times describing the expletive Piniella used. "Yeah, that's exactly what he said," Bradley said. "But I'm not going to get into it." |
