Yankees manager Aaron Boone was ejected early in the game by umpire Hunter Wendelstedt, after a fan, not Boone, yelled from the dugout.

Boone's ejection followed a hit-by-pitch call dispute and a prior warning, reflecting his history of leading AL managers in ejections for the past two seasons.

The Yankees suffered a 2-0 series-opening loss to the Athletics following the incident.

Social media and Boone criticized Wendelstedt's decision, with Boone labeling it 'embarrassing' and 'not right.'

Despite the incident and loss, the Yankees maintain a focus on navigating the season's highs and lows.
