Just one day after a brutal loss to the Boston Red Sox, Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia is headed for the injured list.
New York announced Sunday that Sabathia will take a spot on the 10-day IL with right knee inflammation. Infielder Tyler Wade has been recalled from New York’s Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Sabathia lasted just 4 1/3 innings against the Sox on Saturday, giving up five earned runs off nine hits while striking out three batters.
Prior to tonight’s game, the Yankees placed LHP CC Sabathia on the 10-day IL with right knee inflammation and recalled INF/OF Tyler Wade (#14) from @swbrailriders.
