C.C. Sabathia returns after missing time with virus

What is going on in the baseball spring training facilities?  MLB.com and ESPN.com reported yesterday that the Yankees Pitcher and big-time free agent signee, C.C. Sabathia missed time over the weekend with an intestinal virus.

Yankee’s Manager Joe Girardi was quoted as saying: "He said he wanted to throw his BP and he ended up throwing up again"

C.C. came back on Sunday and reportedly looked pretty decent against Yankee sluggers Alex Rodriguez and Mark Teixeira.

Sabathia had been scheduled to pitch Saturday, but he was unable to make it to the mound, fighting a virus that he acquired from his children, who had been ill earlier in the week.

Probably a good idea for the Yankees (and maybe all MLB staff) to take a look at our cleaning up vomit/norovirus food safety infosheet.

Update: Sounds like the Astros and Giants  also have some virus control issues.
