Jazz Chisholm, Jose Trevino have funny moment after Yankees' broadcast reveal

Tuesday night was a disaster for the New York Yankees. They blew a three-run lead, went to extra innings, saw Jazz Chisholm Jr. get ejected, blew another lead, squandered plenty of opportunities along the way, and then got walked off in the 11th to lose the series to the Cincinnati Reds.

Looking to avoid the sweep Wednesday, the Bombers got off to a fast start, which included a two-run blast off the bat of Chisholm. As he crossed home plate, he had some words with Reds catcher Jose Trevino, a former Yankee who was traded to Cincy in the offseason.

The YES broadcast noted that it appeared to be a playful exchange, and it was revealed why shortly after.

Before the start of the bottom of the ninth on Tuesday, as Chisholm was seemingly talking to himself about the bad call that went against him the inning prior, Trevino directed the home plate umpire Mark Wegner to Chisholm's indirect commentary, and Wegner promptly ejected him.

So now it makes a lot more sense why Chisholm was ready to throw down. There's a chance he never shouldn't been thrown out in the first place.

YES broadcast reveal, Aaron Boone comments clarify Yankees' Jazz Chisholm ejection

Before the game, manager Aaron Boone alluded to this, but not too much context was provided, so nobody really knew what to make of it. Then when the YES broadcast showed the replay from the night prior, it all clicked.

In all honesty, it was a brilliant move by Trevino, who is definitely well-equipped to strategize against his former teammates. Though he only played with Chisholm for the second half of 2024, Trevino has a reputation for getting to know the guys in the clubhouse fairly quickly. He's that kind of veteran presence.

In the end, Chisholm should've just kept quiet so he'd remain out of trouble during such a crucial part of the game. He left the door open for Trevino to pull off a sneaky tactic and tip the scales, removing the Yankees' hottest hitter from the equation.

At the very least, the Yankees are on their way to getting the last laugh. They're up 6-1 with Chisholm's swing being the highlight of the game so far. All that's left is for them to secure the win and for Chisholm to let everybody know what he said to Trevino in the postgame.
