CC Sabathia was once in his former New York Yankees teammate Domingo German's shoes when he entered an alcohol abuse facility in 2015. He shared what German must go through now.
New York Yankees' Domingo German pitches during the fifth inning against the Tampa Bay Rays, July 31, 2023, in New York City.
Manager Aaron Boone added,"In some way, this goes back years. I mean, I think all of us can probably have someone in our life that we can relate to. It’s always an ongoing battle. So, I don’t know as far as recent history or since things before that he’s dealt with going back to like ’19." It came at a gala hosted by Sabathia, who was in his final year as a Yankee, where German was seen slapping his girlfriend at the event, according to The Athletic. German was intoxicated at the time and reportedly got violent after the gala.
This season has truly been a roller coaster for German, with its clear highlight being the 24th perfect game thrown in MLB history on June 29 against the Oakland Athletics. It was the fourth perfect game in Yankees history.Before German can start thinking about baseball again, though, he must tackle a different challenge – one that affects him on and off the diamond.
