Notebook: Padres roll dice on Bradley

The San Diego Padres acquired temperamental outfielder Milton Bradley from the Oakland Athletics on Friday. The Padres sent Oakland minor league pitcher Andrew Brown.

The Athletics are giving San Diego $1,360,929 to cover part of the approximately $2.05 million Bradley is owed for the remainder of the season.

San Diego designated left-handed pitcher Sean Thompson for assignment.

Restaurant not at fault

The Missouri Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Control will take no action against a restaurant that served St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Josh Hancock before the drunken-driving accident that led to his death.

In a report, the division said all information from witnesses indicated Hancock was “consuming intoxicating liquor in moderation” and was “very lucid” in the hours before he died.

Bonds keeps his cool

A male fan hopped the fence and ran out to greet Barry Bonds in left field before the San Francisco slugger calmly walked the man off and into the custody of security personnel.

The fan came out over the short fence along the left-field line and scurried to Bonds in the seventh inning against Arizona. Bonds didn’t flinch, putting his arm around the man and walking him off the field.

Giambi needs scan

Jason Giambi’s foot still hurts, and the New York Yankees slugger likely will have another scan next week to determine how fast he is recovering.

Giambi’s foot bothered him for nearly a month and then he felt a pop rounding the bases on a home run at Toronto on May 29. He was diagnosed with a partially torn plantar fascia and plantar fasciitis.
