Yep, the Boston Red Sox are CC Sabathia's daddy. This season, at least.
The New York Yankees lefty, who leads the majors with 16 wins, fell to 0-4 with a miserable 7.20 ERA against Boston so far this year. Against every other team, he's 16-2 with a 2.11 ERA. Night and day. Here's what he had to say about the shitshow:
"It’s a good ballclub. They have a good lineup. Like today, they wear on you. I’ve faced all of those guys a lot. When I’m right, I can beat anybody."
Right he was not. Sabathia coughed up seven runs over six innings of work on Saturday in his team's 10-4 loss, surrendering nine hits and a walk with six strikeouts. Also, this marks the first time in 11 starts that he didn’t last at least seven innings. Better luck next time, big guy.

Hell and yes.
Some pitchers just get owned. It's bizarre, but it happens.
