Aaron Boone played for the Bronx Bomber in the early 2000's. He is probably more known for his walk-off homer against the Boston Red Sox in 2003 than for his overall career as a player. This walk-off homer earned him a unique middle name in Boston that beings with an "F." I have not confirmed the news report and will update this post as I learn more. So far it looks like the reports are accurate. The Yankees have not made any official statement as of yet. Boone's own Twitter account has no update as well. Stay tuned!
