Luke Voit popped on the YES Network broadcast of the New York Yankees spring training opener against the Toronto Blue Jays to talk with the booth. Pretty awesome, right?
Well, awesome for the viewers, and not entirely for the network. It sounds like CC Sabathia’s on-air skills have rubbed off on the Yankees’ slugging first baseman.
Trailing 5-1 against the Blue Jays, the Bombers orchestrated a bit of a comeback in the fifth inning, with catcher Rob Brantly cranking a two-run homer — the team’s first of the spring — to make it a 5-3 game.
