Yankees manager Aaron Boone has an impressive streak going. He has led the American League in ejections in each of the last five seasons. With the implementation of ABS challenges, there figure to be fewer points of conflict between skippers and umpires this season, so it will be quite a task for those prone to getting the ol' heave-ho to match their typical production.
Boone got on the board with his first ejection of the season on Thursday late in New York's 11–4 loss to the Angels when he went out to get some clarification about a balk called on Ryan Yarbrough. That conversation did not prove to be too productive as home plate umpire Will Little sent Boone to the showers for his dissent.
