Here's the thing, though - if you ask most people in that stadium, they weren't booking Boggs, they were booing Matheny.
Boggs has been a great soldier that's done nothing but work on his game and do anything the team asked of him. He's certainly had great moments in his Cardinals career and he's well liked by his teammates. There's no reason to hate Boggs here.
But Matheny...jesus christ man, WTF? Boggs may/may not be done, I don't know. What I do know and what 40,000 people knew is that he had no business on that mound last night.

Were you in the stands? There is no way that booing wasn't for Boggs or Matheny for pitching boggs. I have seen no evidence that the Cardinal fan base has turned on Matheny. He keeps running out Boggs.....the gloves will come off.
Boggs like Franklin, Izzy and all the rest of the relievers that lost the ability to get batters out worked hard to try to get it back together but sometimes its cut bait time.
