Aaron Boone spitting out expletives after Yankees’ latest ugly loss
NY Post
There was a bang of the table, albeit with an open hand rather than a closed fist.
There were several curses.
There were a few “It’s right in front of us” recitations, a consistent rallying cry in the face of adversity over the past few seasons.
Several hallmarks of a frustrated Aaron Boone appeared after one of the more frustrating games of the season in what has been a frustrating and frustratingly long poor stretch of play.
After a 12-3 loss in The Bronx on Wednesday in which the Yankees were outplayed in every facet by the Mets, which meant the Yankees have dropped 22 of 32 in a skid that won’t stop, Boone appeared to bring the frustration to the postgame podium.
“Nobody has higher expectations than us in that frickin’ room,” the manager said. “We’re pissed off. We got to play better. This has gone on long enough. It’s very frustrating to go through. But I also know we’re competing our asses off. We just got to make sure we continue to walk in with the right level of edge and willingness to compete because no one’s going to pull us out of this but us.”
