Aaron Boone, manager of the New York Yankees, was spotted around Central New York in the last week. Where was he? What brings him to the area? Aaron Boone played 13 season of Major League Baseball and has managed the New York Yankees since 2018. If you were to choose 1 career highlight from Boone's playing days it would have to be his 'walk-off' home run in Game 7 of the 2003 American League Championship Series against the Red Sox. That shot sent the Yankees to the World Series.
