"Out of the majors since playing for the New York Mets in 2005, Offerman homered in the first inning Tuesday night for the Long Island Ducks. The next inning, he was hit by a pitch from Bridgeport Bluefish starter Matt Beech and charged the mound with his bat."
Not condoning what Offerman did, but intentionally throwing at a batter after the batter hits a home run should be grounds for assault charges as well. Maybe or maybe not if the pitch is in the thigh, backside, or ribs. But definitely if it is at the head.
