In honor of his 50th birthday, the New York Yankees current manager and former third baseman took batting practice at Spring Training crushed a home run.

Back in 2003, Boone hit one of the most famous home runs in MLB history, clubbing a walk-off shot in Game 7 of the ALCS against the Boston Red Sox to send the New York Yankees to the World Series.

Boone is entering his sixth season as the Yankees manager. He is on the hot seat after getting swept by the Houston Astros in last year’s embarrassing ALCS.

The Yankees have had plenty of regular season success with Boone at the helm, but are only 14-17 in the postseason during that time.

Yankees star Aaron Judge made it clear he’s among the players who believe in manager Aaron Boone ahead of the upcoming season. 

Boone signed a three-year contract that includes a club option for 2025 back in October 2021.
