“Love You, Brother!” – Derek Jeter’s Decorated Ex-Teammate Wins Fans Over by Backing the New York Giants in High-Stakes NFL Game

The New York Yankees are one of the greatest teams in MLB history, because of the deep-rooted history the franchise has in the League. They had players who gave their best and ultimately won championships. This is true, especially for the Yankees in the 1990s and 2000s. 

One such player is none other than CC Sabathia. The left-handed pitcher is a Yankees legend and helped the team win a World Series title in 2009 alongside Derek Jeter. Since retiring, Sabathia has largely kept a low profile. But the Yankee star was recently seen at a big sporting event cheering on his team.

New York Yankees legend CC Sabathia was seen supporting the Giants in the NFL Playoffs

The NFL playoffs are currently going on and the fans have been going crazy. The New York Giants recently played the Philadelphia Eagles and Yankee legend CC Sabathia was there to support the Giants. Talkin’ Yanks shared a snippet of Sabathia at the Giants game on Twitter. 

In the Tweet, Talkin’ Yanks said, “CC in Philly for the Giants game!” The legendary Yankee pitcher went all the way out to Philadelphia to support the Giants.

Fans reacted to the moment and approved of Sabathia’s actions. Some fans shared their love for the legendary Yankee. Other fans were more concerned about the outfit that he was wearing while at the game. 

Unfortunately for Sabathia, the Giants were dominated by the Eagles and lost the game 7-38. He will be hoping that his Yankees perform a little better than that in the upcoming 2023 season. Especially after signing Aaron Judge to a 9-year $360 million contract, a deal that Sabathia believes is perfect. Furthermore, the Yankees will be looking to win their first title in a long time.

The Yankees have not won a World Series since 2009

The New York Yankees have not won a championship since taking home the 2009 World Series title. In fact, they have not made it back to the World Series since 2009. In the years since then, they have done well in the regular season a few times.

But when it comes to the postseason, the team collapses. Many fans are hoping that the team will get better and win a title soon. They don’t want the Yankees to collapse in the postseason like the Giants just did.
