HOUSTON — Bob Boone will be at Minute Maid Park for the ALCS, but not to offer fatherly advice to Aaron Boone.
Instead, the elder Boone will be there in his role as a senior advisor to Washington general manager Mike Rizzo.
“When I woke up this morning, I thought to myself, ‘Should I recuse myself from this?’ ’’ Bob Boone said with a laugh by phone on Friday. “I don’t know if this has ever happened before.”
The Boone family is accustomed to making MLB history, with three generations having played in the majors, starting with Ray, then Bob, then Aaron and Bret.
