WATCH: New York Yankees' Aaron Boone Ejected from Wednesday's Game vs. Guardians

In this story:
New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected in the first inning of Wednesday afternoon's game against the Cleveland Guardians, after he took exception with a decision from the umpires at Progressive Field.
Guardians designated hitter Josh Naylor hit a fly ball to center field. At first glance, it appeared Yankees center fielder Aaron Hicks made a nice, sliding catch to record an out. The umpires called Naylor out.
Shortly after, the umpires reviewed the call, and overturned the initial decision, calling it a hit for Naylor. Boone was unhappy with the call, but he seemed to be even more unhappy that it did not appear that the Guardians called for a challenge.

Boone blew his top and chewed out the umpiring crew. The sequence should make for a great video breakdown from Jomboy Media.
Wednesday is the final game of the Yankees series against the Guardians. Entering Wednesday, the series was tied one game a piece. It is the first series being played between the two teams since the clubs met in the American League Division Series last year. Despite trailing 2-1 to Cleveland, New York emerged victorious, defeating the Guardians in five games.
Through their first 11 games, the Yankees are 7-4. Despite their strong start, the Yankees are already four games back of first place, as the Tampa Bay Rays have opened the season 11-0. It is the best start for the Rays in franchise history.
The Toronto Blue Jays are tied with the Yankees at 7-4, in second place of the American League East.
