Aaron Boone expressed frustration with the Yankees' defense after an 8-4 loss to the Blue Jays. The team committed four errors during the game and has struggled fundamentally over recent series, resulting in a sweep from June 30-July 3. Boone acknowledged the need to improve defensively, stating the series was marred by giving extra outs to opposing teams. The Yankees failed to capitalize on scoring opportunities, which contributed to their defeat. The team fell behind the Blue Jays in the standings amidst ongoing issues with defense.
"Obviously, we've had two crappy series up here, there's no way around it."
"Just not good enough. I think we have a very good defensive club but clearly in the seven games we've played up here, giving them extra outs... that's cost us in those two series."
