The Yankees’ season so far has been highlighted so far by plenty of wins — and more than a few dustups with umpires.
They got both on Saturday afternoon at the Stadium, as they beat the Indians, 6-5, and also endured three ejections during a wild sixth inning in which Aaron Boone, Brett Gardner and CC Sabathia — who is on the injured list — were all tossed.
“Frankly, I think that got escalated because they came looking for it,’’ Boone said of the umpires after the chaotic scene, as numerous Yankees players yelled from the dugout and the umpires seemed to make matters worse.
Though their issues with the umps haven’t hurt them yet, the Yankees know they have an issue and don’t want to see it cost them in the future.
