Yankees manager Aaron Boone put pressure on the team in Sunday’s postgame press conference.
"We’ve got to find a way to get better. We’re gonna find out what kind of character we’re made of. We’re clearly in the midst of incredibly tough times. We’ve faced it this season and we’re gonna find out if we’re the team we think we are," Boone said, via the New York Post.
