Two months before spring training started, Sabathia underwent surgery to insert a stent, unblocking an artery and causing him a one-month delay in his prep work.
And the veteran lefty’s sparkling 2019 debut made it seem as if the Yankees’ season had just begun, paving over anything that happened before Saturday afternoon.
“I thought I had more pitches,’’ but Sabathia was limited to 62, as manager Aaron Boone turned to three relievers – beginning with Domingo German – to complete the Yanks’ first one-hit shutout since 2014. “Having him back in here, his presence, his laugh – everything about him. All around, he's one of the best teammates I've ever had.’’
“It’s cool, I was able to kind of harness those nerves,’’ said Sabathia, who 15 of the 16 batters he faced, striking out three and yielding just a single to Jose Rondon.
