Aaron Boone was fired up on Tuesday night.
It led to an early exit for the Yankees skipper.
Boone was tossed following the bottom of the seventh of the Yankees’ 5-4 win over the Blue Jays at the Stadium after arguing with the umpiring crew in the wake of an inning-ending diving catch from Toronto center fielder Daulton Varsho.
Varsho went all-out and full extension to catch a sinking line drive from Jazz Chisholm Jr., which was not ruled to have touched the grass as the outfielder’s glove closed on the ball.
Boone, before the top of the eighth, got into a shouting match with second base umpire Brennan Miller, who promptly tossed the Yankees manager.
Earlier, the Yankees lost their challenge when Anthony Volpe’s caught stealing was upheld in the bottom of the fourth.
Miller, as Talkin’ Yanks notes, was on the other end of a notorious Boone blowup in 2019 when he told the umpire to get his strike zone tightened up.
“You’re having a piece-of-s- -t start to this game,” Boone could be heard saying on the YES Network broadcast that July. “I feel bad for you, but f—king get better. That guy [Rays starter Yonny Chirinos] is a good pitcher, but our guys are f–king savages in that box. Our guys are savages in the f–king box. Tighten it up right now, OK?”
The Yankees, even with Boone’s heave-ho, held on for the win to take their second straight over the rival Jays.
