No sucker: Yankees manager 'pissed off' by Jazz Chisholm's in-game lollipop

Mandatory Credit: Rick Osentoski-Imagn Images Aaron Boone never imagined he would be reminding big leaguers to keep their lollipops under wraps, but that's precisely where the Yankees' manager found himself Monday night.
For the second time this season, Jazz Chisholm jogged out of the dugout and to his position at second base for between-innings tosses while enjoying a sweet treat -- a green Charms Blow Pop -- entirely unbeknownst to his manager. When Boone found out about it Monday night, he didn't mind sharing he was red-faced about the incident.
"I just don't think he should've had a lollipop out on the field. Nothing more, less. It just wasn't a good look to me," Boone said in pregame media availability on Tuesday. "I mean, listen, I was annoyed by it, I addressed it and let's move on from it. At the end of the day it wasn't that big of a deal.
"Just ... shouldn't do that."
Chisholm, who declared three days earlier he still won't wear a protective cup despite taking a foul ball to the groin during Thursday's loss to the Chicago White Sox, had the lollipop in his mouth when the Tigers started batting in the bottom of the fifth. He was not involved in any defensive chances during that half-inning.
Earlier in the day, Boone was a bit more emotional with his reaction on the Talkin' Yankees podcast.
"That pisses me off," Boone said Tuesday.
