Aaron Boone defends on using Nestor Cortes: ‘I feel convicted in that, even today’
"And I feel like if Nestor gets that pitch in maybe a little better spot with Freeman, we get a different result."
"And I feel like if Nestor gets that pitch in maybe a little better spot with Freeman, we get a different result."
"And if you take him out after 88 pitches for I don't know what reason..."
"You think Bradley Beal was wondering why Nestor Cortes was in there and not Tim Hill?"
"If I hear another how underappreciated, underrated he is from somebody on a network or something, I want to rip my arms off and throw it at the TV."
"You won't even need six moves to connect Aaron Boone to almost anybody."
"And they intentionally walk him?! With nobody on and one out..."
Both Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone asked about the awkward interaction between Michael Kay and John Flaherty.
"We're a really good team that has played sh*tty of late."
"Yankee fans would love it …"
"Was it Carlos, or was it a fan sitting behind him?"
"It's embarrassing."
The local production crew caught video of a heckling fan yelling at the home plate umpire as well as the ump ignoring Yankees manager Aaron Boone's explanation.
The Mets have clarified they would have ultimately permitted those talks to move forward.
"Yes, Aaron, I do."
Boone took issue with Yankees fans who want him to go at players publicly just because the team is losing.
"You, of all people, I would think would be a little more unemotional than that."
"I thought it was a really interesting opportunity, and a cool idea."
"It would be like somebody from Lincoln’s family and you’re trying to teach them about shootings in theaters, so you use their dad as an example of how to avoid it. I mean, are you out of your mind?!"
Yankees' manager Aaron Boone's intentional walk of Miguel Cabrera, who was one hit shy of 3,000, drew a lot of reaction. Some of that notable reaction was from the Tigers' radio booth.
"Hell no. Get the hell out of here with that."
"My guys are fucking savages in that fucking box and you're having a piece of shit start to this game. I feel bad for you, but fucking get better."
Martinez told Boone about how quick the game felt during his transition from the broadcast booth to the dugout.
Boone will be leaving Sunday Night Baseball to take over as Yankees' manager, despite no experience as a MLB coach or manager.
The former Yankees third baseman hit one of the biggest home runs in team history.
