He then had to face lefty closer Aroldis Chapman with the game on the line one inning later. Chisholm flew out to shallow right field, the second of three at-bats in a row where the Yankees stranded the bases loaded, falling short in crushing fashion.<\/p>\n<p id=\"WJXV3ZNMXNHFDHTUSMZ3SOMW4I\">That move from Boone, to prioritize run prevention when his team was losing, went against his decision to prioritize run production in his starting lineup. Boone chose to pencil Rosario into the starting lineup over Chisholm because he wanted a platoon advantage over Red Sox ace Garrett Crochet. He used the same logic with Paul Goldschmidt starting at first over Ben Rice and Jos\u00e9 Caballero playing at third over Ryan McMahon. Chisholm wasn\u2019t thrilled with that decision, to say the least, but Rosario had good numbers in his career against the left-hander entering play on Tuesday, so that move made sense.<\/p>\n<p id=\"GWSIBOBGBVHS7KAXD5BV2VQ2TQ\">Boone\u2019s justification for bringing Chisholm in was rooted in Boston beginning to bring their left-handed hitters off the bench.<\/p>\n<p id=\"UBGSJLKCPVDGDKSNKACOBHN6PY\">\u201cIt\u2019s a very fair question,\u201d Boone said. \u201cThat is the challenge. The inning before, the ball was starting to go over there and just the range, knowing some more lefties are going to be back in the lineup at that point with their righties in the game. But a fair point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"LWFGITQAZJH6TK2SG4FOAJII74\">Like his numbers against Crochet, Rosario has been effective against Chapman in his career. He even hit a walk-off home run off Chapman when he was on the Mets \u2014 in a game at Yankee Stadium \u2014 during the pandemic-shortened season in 2020. Everybody in the Yankees\u2019 dugout knew Chapman was going to be used since it was a save situation for Boston and Boone\u2019s swap prevented Rosario from having that chance against him.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ZP5DWX2WPRGAXJG7PL7ZKGMGAA\">That\u2019s a wave of retrospective accountability from Boone, but it\u2019s not what Yankees fans want to hear. They were particularly pissed with Boone\u2019s decision to pull ace Max Fried with one out in the seventh inning while the Yankees were still leading 1-0. Luke Weaver entered from the bullpen and three batters later, Boston had a 2-1 lead.<\/p>\n<p id=\"YVSDD5BH4REDVAHQDPGK7MEB7E\">On the other side, Red Sox manager Alex Cora stuck with Crochet deeper into the game, even as his pitch count climbed up to 117. Fried was at 102 when Boone went out to pull him in the seventh.<\/p>\n<p id=\"PPPTMLJWURHMJIBPTECVRYMLAE\">Boone\u2019s choice to leave Goldschmidt in at first base in the ninth inning \u2014 rather than pinch-running with speedster Jasson Dom\u00ednguez \u2014 was another move under a microscope on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n<p id=\"LY3UAYYV2FA7ZA54PGMRJDKOHE\">The manager was also asked about that decision, defending it by saying he didn\u2019t want to burn his one pinch-running option in a two-run game. He was prepared to use Dom\u00ednguez off the bench if Giancarlo Stanton got on base.<\/p>\n<p id=\"G5WSFNZA6FG3LMK45M6J6F56CA\">\u201cHad it been a 2-1 game, then I would have run for Goldschmidt,\u201d Boone said.<\/p>\n<p id=\"YDRQKINMDFH3JEWOCNXFTA65V4\">That\u2019s fair, but speed for Goldschmidt still could\u2019ve mattered, even in a two-run game. Goldschmidt stayed at third on Chisholm\u2019s shallow fly ball to right with one out. Had it been Dom\u00ednguez running from third, there\u2019s a good chance he would\u2019ve scored to cut the Yankees\u2019 deficit to one run. Aaron Judge could\u2019ve advanced from second base to third base on a possible throw to home plate there too, putting the tying run 90 feet away with two outs.<\/p>\n<p id=\"SXNZXYL3C5A5FCNKGHT4HDR27E\">Regardless, it was the Rosario-Chisholm sequence that Boone was second-guessing one day later. Unless the Yankees are able to win two games in a row, starting Wednesday night in Game 2 against the Red Sox, he\u2019ll have plenty of time in October to look back and rethink those moves from home.<\/p>\n<section data-gaid=\":Rrhaq6:\">\n<ul data-testid=\"list\">\n<li>Red Sox\u2019s Alex Cora \u2018managed like there\u2019s no tomorrow.\u2019 He might regret it, Yankees\u2019 Michael Kay says<\/li>\n<li>Yankees save their season with late hit to win Wild Card Series Game 2<\/li>\n<li>Yankees stay alive as Austin Wells comes up clutch | 4 observations from thrilling playoff win<\/li>\n<li>How Yankees\u2019 Aaron Boone handled Jazz Chisholm pouting over benching<\/li>\n<li>Streameast alternatives: Where to get free trials to watch MLB playoffs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p>If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
