Yankees Blame Reds' Jose Trevino for Jazz Chisholm Ejection

During a recent series between the New York Yankees and Cincinnati Reds, tensions flared between former Yankee catcher Jose Trevino, now with the Reds, and Yankees third baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. The conflict escalated after Chisholm was ejected in the ninth inning of a tied game following a disputed strike call, with Yankees manager Aaron Boone attributing the ejection partly to Trevino, who appeared to direct umpire Mark Wegner's attention toward Chisholm during his on-deck warmup. Trevino maintained he was merely helping the umpire and did not intend to provoke Chisholm, who later hit a home run and exchanged friendly remarks with Trevino despite the earlier incident. The Yankees ultimately lost the game but won the series finale decisively. The episode highlighted the complicated dynamic between former teammates now on opposing teams, with Boone expressing some frustration toward Trevino’s role in the ejection while acknowledging Chisholm's subsequent positive interaction. The rivalry added an intriguing subplot to the series, with both players showing a mix of competitive edge and sportsmanship.
