Baltimore 6, NYY 2. Wow, so now even CC Sabathia is stinking it up as a starting pitcher. Given the season CC is having, I guess you have to cut him some slack here and just chalk this one up to sun spots or whatever, and figure it ...

NYY 5, Oakland 0. CC Sabathia is in the process of putting together one amazing year, as he totally shut down the Oakland A's on just one measly hit over eight innings, and he made it all look quite routine. Of course the reality is that this is ...

NYY 12, Chicago 9. This one was certainly an ugly game, but I guess at this point you take the wins anyway you can. Lots of less than encouraging news though -- hopefully CC Sabathia isn't catching A.J. disease like everyone else in the starting rotation seems to ...

NYY 10, Seattle 0. CC Sabathia and Robinson Cano both made great cases today for why they might be deserving of post-season awards, like the CY Young and MVP. CC has become Mr. Automatic over the last three months, as you have to go all the way ...

NYY 6, Detroit 2. Nothing like going up against one of the better pitchers in the league in Justin Verlander when you need to break out of an offensive slump. But this is the way the Yankees do things these days, having no problems with good pitchers, but ...

NYY 4, Kansas City 3. For eight innings this one looked like it was going to be a routine, yawner-type win with the Yankees putting up four runs in picket fence style, while CC Sabathia pretty much kept the Royals off the scoreboard. This was typical CC of ...

Cleveland 4, NYY 1. What is the deal with the Yankees never being able to hit no-name pitchers that they've never seen before? Josh Tomlin may end up being the second-coming of Cy Young for all I know -- the Yankees certainly made him look like it in ...

NYY 10, Kansas City 4. Bad pitching is apparently contagious, as CC Sabathia made it five bad starts in a row for the Yankees. CC did get through 6.1 innings with only four runs (three earned, ergo a "quality" start), but he was in trouble pretty much every ...

NYY 9, Tampa Bay 5. What a whacky start to the second-half of the season this series was. In game one you had CC Sabathia getting the short end of a good pitchers' duel with James Shields, but then the red-hot Nick Swisher single handedly won the game ...

NYY 8, Seattle 2. When you've got the team with the best record in baseball playing a last place team on the day before the four-day All-Star Game break, I guess it's not to be unexpected that you would see some ugly baseball. And that's exactly what we ...
