Sudden second-half swoons have been a hallmark of the New York Yankees' Aaron Boone era, so it shouldn't be news that one is happening right now.

Boone also opted against benching Austin Wells when he cost the Yankees an out in a recent game by forgetting the outs. He didn’t bench rookie Jorbit Vivas for not sliding into third base when he was out tagging up from second on a long flyball in Atlanta right after the All-Star break.
