Other Yankees’ responses:

Aaron Judge: “He needs to stay out of that and not be telling people to throw at players and injure players. That’s not what this game’s about. Not too happy hearing broadcasters talking about trying to injure or hurt players. He needs to clean that up.”

Carlos Rodón: “It’s stupid to talk about because you’re getting beat. Pitch better, This is not the pat-on-your-back league, and we’re going to be nice to you. Everyone’s coming to take the food off your table, and they’re coming to take your money. That’s how this game is played. There are no nice guys.”

Aaron Boone: “I’m an old-school baseball guy, I’ve been around doing this forever. I respect some of the unwritten rules. I really do. I think they’ve evolved and changed some. At the end of the day, I’ve got to do what’s right for my team and try not to get so caught up in what the other team’s doing. I felt like we did the right thing.”
