A good number of Yankees fans have been seriously irritated after the team was disappointed, defeated by the Atlanta Braves with a 5-0 score, and they have been airing their anger ever since then.
The team coach Aaron Boone tried to comfort the fans by telling them that they still had a lot of seasons to play and that they should cheer up and look onward. However, the fans are not taking it lightly with the poor coach as they rained insults and several slamming words at him.
The Braves have earlier played dominant and prevailing games against the Yankees, but the last game was the straw that broke the Camel's back as the Braves served the Yankees with a straight 5-0, entirely shoving them out of the frolic.
The response from the coach, which appeared as if the manager had already given up on their chances for the current season, further triggered fans' anger, making them air their disappointment.
Coaching the Yankees has been one of the most complex and challenging jobs Aaron Boone has ever done since becoming the official manager in 2018.
Aaron Boone was previously an MLB player. He played for thirteen seasons from 1997 to 2009. Boone is mainly identified for his 2003 campaign with the Yankees when he was an All-Star. He hit the winning walk of the American League Championship Series in 2003 while playing for the Cincinnati Reds. But coaching the New York Yankees has been his first and current managerial role.
Boone's managerial activity has been under intense scrutiny since the Braves' dominant defeat. Even though the Yankees have been victorious under the coach, this season has been improbable and weird compared to the former.
Even after the Braves served the Yankees the humiliating defeat in the first game, the Yankees were gassed up with the hope of coming back strong and proudly claiming their crowns. Still, it only worsened as the Braves finally evicted them, sending them packing out of the second game.
Aaron Boone said, "there are still a lot of seasons left... We are going to do better than this."
To worsen the situation, Bryce Elder of the Atlanta Braves, who recently showcased his best performance on Tuesday, rudely shut out the Yankees lineup over seven innings, letting go of the only single hit and recording three full strikeouts. The incident proved that the Brave were more than fit to keep New York silent.
The Yankees Coach Always On Trolling Pressure
Being a manager of the best-known baseball team is not a generally easy job and can be very stressful. Boone was earlier evicted for arguing and mimicking a strikeout call by another coach (umpire Laz Diaz).
That was the sixth time the Yankee team manager would be trolled in 2023. Boone already has the old heave-ho 32 times and 823 games as the Yankee Skipper, which now ranks 53rd all-time.
