HOUSTON – Former New York Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia didn’t mince words when he was asked to comment on a postgame interview by Carlos Correa last week.
After the Houston Astros swept the Minnesota Twins in the American League wild card game to advance to the American League Division Series, Correa had something to say to the Astros haters.
I know a lot of people don’t want to see us here,” Correa is quoted as saying.
