When Jazz's Blunder Isn't Enough - Boone Makes It Worse!

Monday, April 13, 2026 8:41

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

What an embarrassing stretch for the Yankees. What an embarrassing series against the Rays. It was hard to stomach Jazz Chisholm‘s infield blunder on Saturday and then finish it off with a disastrous media appearance. Let’s just make it even worse and get swept by the Rays after it’s all said and done. New season, same antics.

We can also debate if Jazz understands basic baseball rules. It’s back to baseball 101 for Jazz. Clearly he needs it and that frustrates the hell out of me! While talking through his strategy on the play with one out and the bases loaded in a tie game, he bobbled and cost himself a chance at a tag-and-throw double play. Afterwards, Chisholm talked with the media and questioned if he could have thrown to first and then tried to get the runner at second on a tag play for an inning-ending double play. As he was talking through it, he admitted “I don’t know what the rule is” right in front of the media. Sitting at the locker next to him, Trent Grisham jumped in and told him that the runner would have scored from third before the tag at second base, the run would’ve scored and the game would’ve ended.

I guess I feel relieved that Jazz’s instinct was to tag Yandy Diaz, who is a slow runner before throwing to Ben Rice at first but not knowing a basic rule really is a horrific look for both Jazz, Aaron Boone and the Yankees front office. To make matters worse, Baboonie defended Jazz yesterday morning and said that Jazz DOES know the rules….even though Jazz himself said he didn’t. Talk about a public relations nightmare!

“We’ll talk through it,” Boone said HERE before the series finale at Tropicana Field. “He’s not confused on it. I think that’s kind of the default answer when he’s got reporters in front of him. Look, it turns out to be a tough play. Watching it back, there might have been a chance to where if he gets it cleanly, he gets the tag off, it’s hard to know how exactly Yandy Diaz reacts in that moment running from first to second. Once it chops like that, you know it’s going to be a tough one to turn the normal 4-6-3.” When Baboonie was asked by the media if Jazz really didn’t know the rule he replied “I think he knows the rule.” Then he added more fuel to the fire by adding “I think part of it comes to answering those things in a better way.”

That should be true for both the player and his clown of a manager. Baboonie couldn’t be any further from the truth on this one and he stupidly puts himself in a spot that gives us all more ammunition to prove why he is becoming an even bigger idiot (I wasn’t sure that was possible, but he just did it!)

At the end of the day, Jazz was very candid and said he did not understand the rule. He said it on camera! There’s no walking that back! However, in true Baboonie clown fashion he tries to cover up for Jazz and his bad blunder and admission of his total lack of baseball intelligence. WHY?! Don’t tell the media “I think he knows the rule” after he just said he did not and then throw back with the idea of answering those things in a better way. That goes for you too, dumbass!

Seriously, let Jazz talk his way out of that and then have a meeting with him and give him some tough love! That’s what needed to happen but we all know it didn’t. Jazz made some big mistakes, but Baboonie made some bad manager decisions also. They are both clowns.

I’m just amazed that Jazz, who thinks he is worth $35 million a year in a new contract doesn’t understand baseball 101 that is taught in little league! The Yankees better save their money for players that understand the game. While they are at it they should cut the brainless manager too!
