Milton Bradley said after Tuesday's loss he's "never" comfortable playing at Wrigley Field.
"It's hard to be comfortable when you don't get a hit and get booed every time," he said. "When I go home and look in the mirror, I like what I see. My family is there I have people I can talk to who are very supportive, in spite of everything and all the adversity and the hatred you face on a daily basis. But I'll be alright. I always have."
Bradley went 4-for-4 with a home run in the 15-6 loss, but the Cubs are still nine games behind St. Louis.
"I have no doubt in the guys we've got in here," he said. "It's solid, good nucleus... If everyone can just keep all the distractions and everything that comes with playing here and being a Cub out, and just focus on what you can do and what you can control, we'll be fine."
Are the Cubs at all demoralized?
"I don't have a politically correct answer for that, so I won't answer it," he said.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
