Milton's 911 calls

The Breeze listened to the 911 calls placed this summer from the home of the Dodgers' Milton Bradley, and it sounds like several times he made the call and asked for police help to calm down his pregnant wife Monique. He also told the dispatchers that he had trouble with anger management, but was faithful to his wife and tired of arguing with her. Bradley said that on a couple of occasions, his 70-year-old mother drove up from Long Beach to intervene with his wife. In one call, he was heard saying:

"You need to come over here. My wife is acting crazy and pulling and scratching me and acting a fool. And I play professional baseball for the Dodgers and I don't need no problems."
