I Wish He'd Have Just Apologized

Instead of falling on his sword or blaming his exuberance, Milledge issued a non-apology apology for the hand slapping good time he had with fans after his homer off Armando Benitez.
"It's becoming a big thing, but it's not like I shot somebody or something. "I've already been put out there as a guy with baggage, so people are going to draw their own conclusions."
"You know what? It happened, and if we could replay the game, I don't regret one thing I did. As far as showing up somebody, it might have looked like that. But I'm not here to show up anybody because I haven't put in enough time at the big-league level. So I have no right to show anybody up."
