SEATTLE -- A season-high five-game losing streak prompted New York Yankees manager Aaron Boone to assemble his players in the visiting clubhouse at T-Mobile Park to remind them of who they are: the team that spent the first half of the season as the best in baseball.
"We got together today and spoke and talked. Just more kind of dust settling from the trade deadline, people coming and going a little bit, wanted to get the group together and talk to them, so I did that," Boone said before Monday night's game against the Seattle Mariners.
