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.
The southpaw is 5-6 with a 4.78 ERA through 17 starts this season.
