Quick Glance: Yankees' Aaron Boone Ejected for Fan-Heckling of MLB Umpire in Unusual Incident: 'I Don't Care Who Said It'
- Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected early in the game against the A's at Yankee Stadium after a fan yelled something. This marked his 35th career ejection, with a rather unusual reason this time.
- Umpire Hunter Wendelstedt warned Boone of an ejection after just five pitches if another word was said. A fan behind the dugout shouted something, leading Wendelstedt to toss Boone out of the game.
- Boone's reactions, including pointing to the crowd, were captured on video. In one clip, Boone can be heard denying he said anything. Despite Wendelstedt's error in judgment, the ejection stood, making for a highly entertaining situation.
- Although Wendelstedt misinterpreted the situation and Boone was innocent, the ejection remained. Nevertheless, the whole incident was incredibly entertaining, and Boone's 35 ejections in a short span of time is quite an impressive feat.
