I think the Yanks are talking about the fact that the Sox signaled to the bullpen (have not heard how the bullpen knew which guy to send, as no one was warming) for a new pitcher then informed the PU that their F1 was injured.

To avoid this they should have informed the PU of the injury, and then asked for a replacement F1.
