After a reasonable span of five games, problems have only increased for the New York Yankees. The Yanks have lost their last three games, including the series opener against the San Diego Padres on Friday. It seems like nothing is going right with the Aaron Boone-led team. After losing their manager for the Padres game because of the suspension, the Yankees also ended up losing another crucial home game.

The absence of the Yankees’ manager from the game was visible. Notably, Boone was serving a one-game suspension for his antics in the encounter against the Baltimore Orioles. Without his guidance, the team failed to execute the plans. But for the fans, the talking point was his suspension instead of the defeat against the mighty Padres. When the news of Boone’s suspension came, baseball fans rallied behind him and registered their reactions to the case.
