Milton Bradley and Right Field Hecklers - normal?

Spent the day in right field and Milton Bradley was getting into it with loudmouths all....day....long. I've spent plenty of games out there over the years, but this was my first this season. For any regulars, is this normal? I'm not criticizing Bradley, just wondering if he's always engaging the crowd.

I don't know about Bradley

But I’ve noticed Soriano LOVES the blecher bums, he’s always messing with them. He turns around between every pitch.

define "getting into it"?

I’ve seen him go along with some of the jokes.

I'm a Cubs FANATIC. They are my team, through thick and thin. When they play over their heads, and when they play under the gutter. When they win the division, and then get swept in the division series. When they get no-hitters and when they blow no-hitters. And some day, when they go all the way and get those rings. This is the kind of fan I am.

this just was different in that I didn't take it as playful

He was wiping his bottom, doing the “throat slash” as if to say cut it out – enough is enough – turning around and motioning for the guy to come out to his spot in right field, doing the yapyapyap hand movement.

I’ve been out there enough to know when it’s fun, but this didn’t feel particularly playful.

I’m just curious if that’s just par for the course out there these days.

My group was having the same thoughts and wondering why Milton Bradley just didn’t let it go and ignore the morons or if that’s not how it is out there these day. That’s all I meant.
