Yankees Skipper Aaron Boone and DJ LeMahieu's Back-to-Back Ejections After Controversial Call Sparks Fan Outrage
- On Friday night at Fenway Park, the New York Yankees were defeated 2-1 by the Boston Red Sox, a game notable for the ejections of their skipper Aaron Boone and infielder DJ LeMahieu.
- The controversy began when umpire Jeremie Rehak called a LeMahieu grounder in the 10th inning foul, a decision upheld after replay review despite Yankees’ protests.
- Boone argued the call was clearly fair and criticized replay officials for lacking the courage to overturn it, which led to his ejection after he threw gum on the field.
- LeMahieu, ejected for the first time in his 15-year career after saying "That was a brutal call," expressed surprise but denied using profanity, while fans and players strongly disagreed with the foul ruling.
- This game illustrated ongoing tensions over umpiring decisions and contributed to the Yankees’ third straight loss to the Red Sox, with implications for team morale and calls for greater replay review transparency.
