Sabathia took the loss Tuesday against Baltimore, allowing four runs over six innings.
Recommendation: Sabathia was uncharacteristically wild, walking four batters. On top of eight hits, it's no surprise the Orioles were able to get to the big lefty. Still, Sabathia has only walked 14 total batters in 57.1 innings, and he should return to ace-type pitching sooner rather than later.

LHP CC Sabathia five-game winning streak ended Tuesday, as the Orioles scored four runs on eight hits and four walks in Sabathia's six innings, taking a 5-2 decision from the Yankees in Baltimore. Two of the four walks issued by Sabathia came around to score, putting the Yankees in a 4-0 hole they would never overcome.
"It was a battle," Sabathia said. "I felt like I was grinding from the second inning on, just trying to go out and make pitches and try to minimize the damage."

Sabathia outpitched David Price for the first time in six career matchups between the All-Star lefties, Robinson Cano and Curtis Granderson homered and the Yankees beat the Tampa Bay Rays 5-3 Thursday night.
Advice: Sabathia allowed two unearned runs in eight innings - the fourth straight start he's gone exactly that long.
