Yankees manager Aaron Boone defends players after Derek Jeter, Alex Rodriguez criticism

Aaron Boone’s New York Yankees have been getting a ton of criticism of late, including from some team legends. 

Derek Jeter and Alex Rodriguez were serving in their roles as FOX Sports commentators on Saturday when they laid into their former team, with the latter asking, "Where’s the accountability?" They were referring to the team’s recent mental mistakes, which included a Jazz Chisholm Jr. baserunning error on Saturday. 

Boone, though, came to the defense of his players on Sunday morning as the Yankees looked to salvage a game against the Miami Marlins, a team they were expected to handle over the weekend on the road.
