ESPN | Marly Rivera Yankees’ skipper Aaron Boone, who is absent from the team after undergoing surgery to receive a pacemaker on Wednesday, has been released from the hospital and is doing very well, sources told Rivera. Boone will rest for an unspecified period of time, but he is expected back with the club whenever he is deemed ready. Boone had already undergone open-heart surgery back in 2009 when he was with the Houston Astros to fix an issue with his aorta and aortic valve.
