The Rockies fan was trying to get the attention of the team’s mascot, "Dinger," but was accused of using the N-word during Brinson’s at-bat. A video later surfaced of him sitting behind home plate and waving and shouting to the mascot to come by him. Brinson continued: "I personally – this is again my personal opinion – I personally keep hearing the N-word. ROCKIES FAN SCREAMED FOR MASCOT 'DINGER,' DIDN'T YELL RACIAL SLUR, TEAM CONFIRMED"But to now, saying that again, I haven’t talked to the Rockies or that fan personally. The man reportedly didn’t hear about any of the news until his daughter called him today because the Rockies called her about the incident.
