Why Yankees' Aaron Boone wasn't happy with the umpires

NEW YORK -- Yankees manager Aaron Boone had a tense talk with plate umpire Jerry Layne.

The Boone walked away, turned around and came back for more.

Nothing changed.

After the Yankees' 3-1 loss to the Rays at Yankee Stadium on Thursday, Boone wasn't particularly pleased with it.

Boone said he was upset umpires gave Giancarlo Stanton a double instead of a triple after a mix-up during an eighth-inning rally.

"Unfortunately, that seems to always be a default: Just make it a double," Boone said.
