Jose Offerman beat the opposing team with his bat.

He ran onto the mound, bat in hand, and broke the pitcher's finger. He also knocked the opposing catcher in the head. He wasn't plunked by the pitcher, he was hit on the leg (according to SI).

If he's not suspended from baseball for life, do you think the Giants or A's will try to sign him? There are some guys who are tough to pitch inside, but I can't imagine a pitcher ever trying to own the inside of the plate against this guy ever again. He's going to be dominating the penal leagues. Right now "Wild Thing" Ricky Vaughn has to be at least a little afraid.
