A day after the Yankees had three ejections — including Aaron Boone — the manager hoped his team and the umpires did a better job of staying calm in the future.
And both Boone and Brett Gardner said they have yet to hear from MLB about whether banging a bat on the roof of the dugout is cause for being tossed, but Boone said he would talk to the veteran outfielder about not doing it during tense moments, as he did on Saturday.
“I’ve talked to [Gardner] and continue to talk to him about trying not to escalate situations, especially when there is some contention,” Boone said before the Yankees finished their series against the Indians in The Bronx on Sunday.
