Millwood on the fireworks
Orioles starter Kevin Millwood was not a fan of the premature firework that went off after he allowed a leadoff homer to Alex Rodriguez in the second-inning of Friday’s 4-3 loss. The usually reserved Millwood had no problems airing his opinion, twice, post-game.
“It was a little shocking that we shot off fireworks for an opposing team’s home run. That wasn’t the best thing in the world,” he said.
“{The Yankees] were a lot more aggressive tonight than they normally are,” said Millwood, who held New York to one run over seven innings and took a no-decision. “I guess it was a good thing that I was throwing my fastball where I wanted to for the most part except for right before the fireworks.
