As a manager with 31 career ejections, Aaron Boone should have a good read on what it takes to get thrown out. That only added to his anger Sunday.

“The sensitivity on that and the quick throwout was brutal. It was ridiculous. You gotta have thicker skin than that. You gotta have a little bit of room to let us say something. We said one thing, [he put his] hand up, [then I was] out. That’s wrong in my opinion, especially coming from what I think’s got a chance to be a really good young umpire. It’s ridiculous.”
Boone, who said he had previously had some “good interactions” with Merzel, indicated that he only had an issue with that one pitch. After he was ejected for the fifth time this season, Boone came onto the field and argued more with Merzel to get his money’s worth. “It’s a big, big point in that game,” Boone said. “[It should have been] first and second, one out, all of a sudden in an inning where [Montgomery is] throwing a lot of pitches. Maybe it turns [out] a little bit different.”
