Yankees' Boone suspended 1-game for tirade

First-year New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone will miss Sunday's game against the Detroit Tigers to serve a one-game suspension, Major League Baseball has announced.

Boone was suspended for a tirade aimed at home plate umpire Nic Lentz during a 7-5 Yankees win over the Tigers on Friday.

Boone stormed the field in the fifth inning Friday to yell at Lentz about his strike zone calls, even going so far as to mimic getting in the catcher position and calling imaginary balls and strikes.

It was Boone's third time being tossed from a game this season. He also faces an undisclosed fine for his actions.

The Yankees are 86-50 in Boone's debut campaign and are going for their third straight win in Sunday's series finale.
