Following the Yankees' loss to the Dodgers in the 2024 World Series, manager Aaron Boone voiced his defense of his players amid criticism of the Dodgers for their post-series comments. Notably, Boone was unsettled by remarks from Chris Taylor and Joe Kelly that seemed disrespectful towards the Yankees. He acknowledged the Yankees' underperformance, which included five errors, yet lamented the lack of decorum shown by some Dodgers players, emphasizing that while the Dodgers deserve to celebrate, respect should also prevail in sportsmanship.
I don't like hearing that. But the reality is, we didn't play our best in the series, and they won. They have that right to say whatever.
The sentiment is not untrue, as the Yankees had five errors in the series, three of which came in Game 5 alone.
