Aaron Boone said he felt embarrassed by his theatrical display during an argument with plate umpire Laz Diaz after he was ejected from the New York Yankees' loss to the Chicago White Sox on Monday.

Boone said he talked to MLB senior vice president of on-field operations Mike Hill on Tuesday, but the manager didn't reveal details of their discussion.

"I don't like doing that," Boone said. "But I also felt like I needed to fight with what was happening in that game."

Boone said he heard from "quite a few" of his fellow managers, adding it was "a lot of funny stuff, mostly."
