Yankees manager Aaron Boone ejected for 5th time this season

NEW YORK -- Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected from a game for the fifth time this season in the third inning Sunday against the Houston Astros.

Boone thought Jason Alexander's sinker to Ryan McMahon was a low called strike. He argued with plate umpire Derek Thomas, who replied: "I've heard you enough Aaron," and tossed him out.

Boone continued the argument for about another minute while third base umpire Jordan Baker interceded, and the at-bat continued with McMahon flying out to center field.

Boone was ejected six times last season.
