NEW YORK -- New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected for the major-league-leading fifth time this season and the 38th time in his career when plate umpire Edwin Jimenez tossed him for arguing during Sunday's 6-4 loss to the Tampa Bay Rays.

Boone was ejected before the start of the seventh inning for arguing from the dugout after slumping Alex Verdugo was called out on a full-count fastball from Colin Poche that appeared to be low.

Verdugo repeatedly complained after the call for the first out in the bottom of the sixth.
