 uh cc sabathia received a $500,000 performance $500,000 performance bonus from the Yankees even though he came up just shy of the 155 innings specified for the payment in his contract because of course he hit Jesus sucre is that he's lost it yeah thank you good job thank you on september 27th with his 55th pitch of the night was retaliation for romine being hit in the top half of the inning sabathia's agent said that they thought it was a really nice gesture the Yankees to pay um we're very appreciative and cc's really excited to come back next year and hopefully win a championship i'm thrilled that i gotta tell you personal bias it's my guy thrilled he's coming back um neither side announced the decision it was something that we did very private and weren't looking to publicize and i'll leave it at that said brian cashman well i'll say this there's no way at that moment when he hit sucre that he knew the Yankees were going to pony up so what he did was still very very cool and a sacrifice that he made because he's a team leader the Yankees did the right thing because that's how you reward your players they they understood what was going on so technically he didn't honor the contract by pitching the nm but he did more than what he did was even bigger i reward my employers that's exactly right that's why the Yankees are a class organization because there's a lot of other teams who would have seen the opportunity to save half a million dollars and said sorry you mean the contracts a contract if we do that for you we're gonna have to do it for everybody no i mean you know it is what it is they they did what they did and whatever happened after that the way you were pitching because it seemed like you were totally in a good groove no i felt good i mean the cutter was was really good today bro called a good game we had a good you know game plan you know my pitches were moving and working so i was able to get some easy out some some swings early in the count so what happened you had a lot of stake in that game you're pitching really well on one hand and we all know that you had a financial stake in it with an incentive bonus if you got two more innings i guess that kind of pales in comparison to what you decided to do was more important yeah i mean i don't i don't really make decisions based on money i guess um you know um yeah i just felt like it was you know the right thing to do so you see what caused you to yell something toward their dugout when you were walking off i don't even remember what i said or i just i was just yelling i don't get it anyone in particular just in general of the situation you honestly what happened i think we all took a section of that you know um i think anytime you know your players um you know you feel like your players safety's in jeopardy you know i think all guys take a section of that so we all did not that you have to earn respect or anything around here but you know for you to do that your teammates what do you think they take away from you oh you gotta ask them you know like i said i mean i you know whatever happened happened and you know we'll just move on from there
