Apparently there is more to the story.
From tampabay.com:
Sciesinski, 33, pleaded no contest to the charge Thursday morning. He also admitted to chanting “Let’s go, Red Sox!” in the back of the police van.
The judge found him guilty. He was sentenced to the night he had already spent in jail and fined $375 and court costs.
The Sarasota DJ tells a different story. He wasn’t drunk, he said, just “buzzed” after his third rum and Coke. He said he cursed in front of some kids but apologized. He said it was Rays fans who were being rowdy. He was just “heckling.”
He said he went limp when he got tackled and that he was threatened with the Taser after he had surrendered. And he said “they beat me up pretty bad.”
But Sciesinski said he won’t file a complaint.
“If he would have Tased me, yeah, I would,” he said. “But there’s no need for ill feelings.”
