Part 2 | Aaron Boone on Social Media, Pressure & His 2003 Walk-Off

September 24, 2026·20 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

On this episode of Dirt From the Dugout, Karl Ravech and Justin Musil close out their conversation with Yankees manager Aaron Boone, diving into how he handles the pressure of New York and the social media noise that comes with it, including the annual talk he gives his team every spring training about protecting themselves from it, and the lesson Giancarlo Stanton once shared with the clubhouse. Boone also revisits one of the most iconic moments in Yankees history: his walk-off home run off Tim Wakefield in Game 7 of the 2003 ALCS, from Joe Torre's on-deck advice to the Velcro batting pad that came loose mid-swing, and how his relationship with that moment has changed over the past two decades. Plus, the kitchen sink gets personal with questions like his all-time favorite non-baseball athlete, his dream dinner guests, his go-to impression of Joe Torre, and his answer to who the most valuable person in his life really is.
