Once he got the hook, an incredulous Chisholm then went to get his moneys worth, with manager Aaron Boone having to hold him back from Wegner to eventually get him off the field. Everybody knows how I am: If Im going to go at an umpire, Im going to go at an umpire, Chisholm said. Im not going to hide it, none of that. If I wanted to say something to him, I would have said it. Nobodys going to stop me from saying something to an umpire if I want to. Im a grown man. So for me not even to say nothing to you, and me to ask you why youre looking at me and you to s me, I feel like theres a problem.

Talkin Yanks/X Marcus Stroman made his third, and po sibly last, rehab start Tuesday night at Double-A Somerset, getting hit around while building his pitch count up to 65. Results dont often mean much on a rehab a signment, especially for a veteran pitcher, but they were not particularly pretty. Stroman lasted 3/ innings, giving up five runs on 10 hits and two walks while striking out one. A suming Stromans knee recovers well in the coming days, the Yankees will have to decide whether to activate him off the injured list for his next start or have him throw another rehab outing to further build his pitch count. A spot opened up in the rotation over the weekend when Ryan Yarbrough was placed on the injured list with a low-grade oblique strain, which the club hopes does not sideline him long. The Yankees called up Allan Winans on Monday to make a spot start, and the right-hander got beat up his second time through the Reds lineup, allowing four runs acro s 4/ innings. The Yankees did not immediately send Winans back to Triple-A on Tuesday for a fresh reliever, keeping in play that he could make another start over the weekend against the Athletics. But they also could have been waiting to make sure Stroman got through Tuesdays start without any physical i sues, because Winans would not have been able to come back up this weekend if he were optioned on Tuesday unle s he were replacing a newly injured player.

Just a lot of people that I became very close with and some of those people that Ill even bump into while Im back here. Love the city. Its always very nostalgic and even probably a little bit emotional coming back because I dont get back here that much. But I love it. Anthony Volpe lost his bat twice Monday while swinging through pitches one flying into the netting over the Yankees dugout and another flying past the dugout down the line. Its just one of those things that some guys are more accustomed to do that, Boone said. I think its the way some guys grip it and hold it, how they release, theyre more inclined to do that.
