Rockies: Fan yelled 'Dinger,' not racial slur at Lewis Brinson

The Colorado Rockies on Monday said that a fan who initially was thought to have shouted a racial slur during Sunday's game was actually yelling "Dinger," the name of the team's mascot.

Initial reports said the fan yelled the N-word multiple times during Miami Marlins outfielder Lewis Brinson's at bat in the ninth inning.

The team issued a statement after Sunday's game, saying it was "disgusted at the racial slur" direc
