I happen to live in Bridgeport and am webmaster for the Bluefish (the defensive team in thisincident). I wasn't at the game, but have talked to quite a few who were there.
Offerman (an ex-Bluefish, BTW) lollgagged it trotting around the bases on his first-inning dinger. Catcher John Nathans said something to him on his next at bat. Then, Matt Beech hit him with in the calf on an 0-1 curve.
Here's the link to Offie's "denial." Then click on the photo to see a well-done slide show. No video crew was at the game.
Hmmm two ballplayers faking a broken finger and a concussion? Do I smell a rodent?
