Following yet another shutout loss, this time to the Blue Jays on Friday, Yankees manager Aaron Boone issued a strong message to his players.
"We should be ticked off right now and we need to start playing better. Plain and simple," Boone said after the Yankees’ fifth loss in their last six games, and the team’s eighth in their last 10 outings.
“You pour a lot into trying to shake hands at the end of the day, and we’ve been able to do that on balance on a really high clip this year. We’ve hit a rough patch and we’ve got to dig ourselves out,” Boone continued. “We can sit here, and I can keep answering questions and talk about it … but we’ve got to go do it. And the good news is we’ve got all the pieces in that room to do that. I know that’s coming. I know it’s going to happen, but it really sucks going through it.”
