The New York Mets completed a four-game season sweep of the crosstown Yankees on Wednesday night.
It\'s the first time the Mets have swept a season series against the Yankee since 2013.
Afterward, Aaron Boone vented his frustration with his team\'s tailspin while emphatically insisting he believes the team will reverse course.
\"We got to play better, OK?\" Boone said. \"We have it right in front of us. We\'re a really good team that has played s---ty of late. We need to be better.
\"I\'m not going to define stretch, this or that. We got to go win, right? And we\'re right there. We\'re watching other teams struggle around us. We know we got to be better. We\'re pissed off in there. We got a lot of pride in there. We got a lot of expectation in there. So, stretch, slump, recent, I don\'t give a s---. It\'s we got to play better the rest of the way.\"
The Yankees were 50-22 when they beat the Boston Red Sox on June 14.
Since then, they are 10-22.
