Jazz Chisholm Jr. wants to stay a Yankee, wonders about Game 3 booing
Benched for Game 3 of the AL Division Series, Jazz Chisholm Jr. entered as a pinch-hitter and later expressed his desire to remain in pinstripes.
NEW YORK – In a recent interview following the Yankees' sweep by the Rays, Jazz Chisholm Jr. expressed his desire to remain with the team. Despite the boos he received during introductions and his pinch-hit at-bat in Game 3, Chisholm still wants to stay a Yankee. "This is where I want to be," Chisholm said, acknowledging his love for the Yankees.
Although he was benched to start Game 3, Chisholm explained that he doesn't understand why fans would boo someone trying to help the team win. He recognizes that the Yankees Universe has booed other talented players like Aaron Judge, so he understands the fans' perspective. Chisholm, who grew up watching the Yankees and was recently named an All-Star and Silver Slugger Award winner, was surprised by the boos during Game 3.
He acknowledged that it's part of the business and that the end of the postseason stinks, but it's just a part of the game.
