The baseball season has gotten off to a pretty sweet start for the first-place New York Yankees, but manager Aaron Boone would rather his second baseman not take that so literally.<\/p>\n
Jazz Chisholm took the field in the fifth inning of Monday’s game against the Detroit Tigers with a green lollipop in his mouth. While he didn’t factor into any defensive plays in the inning, Boone still felt Jazz hit a sour note.<\/p>\n
“That pisses me off,” Boone said Tuesday on the “Talkin’ Yanks” podcast from Jomboy Media.<\/p>\n
“I didn’t know about it until after the game,” Boone added. “So he and I talked about that, and that won’t be going on.”<\/p>\n
Boone also seemed surprised and unhappy to learn that Chisholm is a repeat sweet treat offender.<\/p>\n
“That was the second time?” Boone asked. “There was another time?”<\/p>\n
Chisholm previously did it during an at-bat earlier in the season against the Red Sox.<\/p>\n
Chisholm has had an interesting week on the field. He fouled a ball off his groin last Thursday, but said he still won’t wear a cup. And an inning before Chisholm’s Monday night snack, he took issue with a dirt-cam in the Comerica Park infield, sparking a brief delay in the game.<\/p>\n
New York is on a three-game losing streak, but at 46-31, the Yankees lead the AL in wins and hold a two-game division lead over the Tampa Bay Rays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The baseball season has gotten off to a pretty sweet start for the first-place New York Yankees, but…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":756668,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[435],"tags":[49,48,270023,462,92085,82],"class_list":["post-756667","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mlb","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-jazz-chisholm-jr-sports-baseball-player-player-statscom-919327","tag-mlb","tag-new-york-yankees-sports-baseball-team-team-statscom-234","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/756667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=756667"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/756667\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/756668"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=756667"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=756667"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=756667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
