"Aaron Boone is a character guy. He's someone that helps create a professional environment. In the end, that will be his baseball legacy. He was a professional in every sense of the word.
...
At the same time, players like Aaron Boone will be missed in ways that can't be precisely measured. When teams win championships, they always look back at guys like Aaron Boone and understand how much they meant to the club."
Wow.
I can guarantee that no championship major league baseball team has ever looked back and said Aaron Boone meant a lot to the club.
On second thought, maybe the Florida Marlins after they beat the Yankees in 2003 because Boone couldn't get that runner home from third base in extra innings.
"Thanks goodness for Aaron Boone, a high character individual who couldn't hit a sac fly against Braden Looper."
