In a twist that screams baseball soap opera, the Texas Rangers just added a new character to the cast—and he’s no stranger to family feuds. As if postseason storylines needed more spice, Bret Boone is now staring across the diamond at his brother, Aaron Boone, with a grin that says, ‘Game on.’ The Yankees-Rangers rivalry just found its next subplot, and this one’s written in Boone blood.
We see rivalries born from the smallest of things, and when siblings are involved, it becomes personal. With the New York Yankees and the Rangers series just around the corner, the Boone brothers will be facing off against each other. And let us tell you: it’s about to get hot.
This move came as a surprise to many baseball purists, especially the man involved, Bret. In an interview with MLB Network, he revealed how he became involved with the Rangers and got deeper in the circle of baseball. He said, “He said no, Boone, I’m calling you about something else. So this just came out of nowhere. There was no agenda. I wasn’t looking to do this at this stage in my life. It just happened.”
