After CC Sabathia won the AL Cy Young, the baseball world was shook when he was traded by the Cleveland Indians. But his unlikely partnership with the lowly Milwaukee Brewers changed both his career and their franchise for the better.

that image of Sabathia flexing on the mound after that last double play sums up the emotions of every Brewers fan that day. That man put the team on his back and carried the crew (and us fans) out of 26 years of misery

12:25 nah, no hard feelings at all, not everyone can be like giannis and choose to stay in Milwaukee. CC gave us his all when he really had no reason to, during a contract year some players half ass it because they know someone will overpay for past performance (more common in baseball than any other sport tbf) some don't go all out for fear of injury, and some ball the fuck out like CC did. Knowing his performance from the 1st half of the year alone would get him paid, he put his body on the line pitching way more than any pitcher should/normally would, even back then. Nothing but respect for him after that half a year.

I feel like Milwaukee is always the place to go if you want to get a great big contract. We're able to keep a few (Braun and Yelich), but for the most part, guys like C.C. and Grienke got PAID for what they did in Milwaukee. Milwaukee and Wisconsin, in general, is a very underrated sports town and state. We love our teams and players unconditionally (except Grayson Allen, he's got a face, not even a mother can love). So our players always seem to ball out when they're here. It's a pretty awesome bond. Mostly because we have nothing else to do in the cold, and we're all fat drunk Germans. But yeah, whenever someone says, "Why would anybody want to stay or go to Milwaukee, Green Bay, etc..?!?" They just don't understand when guys like Giannis and Portis stick around for sometimes less money. And they never will.

I'll never be able to thank CC Sabathia enough for what he did for the Brewers. I grew up after the 82 season and the team he joined was the first time I felt like the Brew Crew was part of the wider MLB. It was the first time people outside my hometown were talking about my team. This and the Richie Sexton trade are the two biggest things that turned around the team in my life time. I want the Crew to win a title for Bob Uecker and for my dad and CC joining the team was the first step in that road to it.

CC led all of MLB in shutouts in 2008 with 5, and he also led each league individually. He threw 2 shutouts with Cleveland (T-1st in the AL) and 3 with Milwaukee (T-1st in the NL). This is one of my favorite trivial stats

The Pirates official scorer attempted to defend that awful decision for years afterward, calling it not a routine play that could have been made with ordinary effort. I suppose that is true ... if you are a 60-year old man sitting in the press box all day. While CC fumbled that chance, he probably gets an out there 95 times out of 100. The Brewers actually appealed to MLB to get the ruling changed, but the league said no to that (which admittedly they probably should have since nonody knows for sure how the last few innings would have played out if he had the no-no going).

I was at that game where they clinched... words can't describe it. That year, I tried to see as many games as I could with Sabathia in it. I saw him hit a home run in a game against the Reds (underrated home run hitter). You just knew when they got him something magical was going to happen. It seemed pre-ordained. It's weird, though. I completely forgot Yost was fired that year late season, and the Brewers went on a slide. It's funny how as time passes and the end result is great, you kind of overlook the blemishes, everything smoothes out, and you have nothing but rose colored googles on.

I'll never forgive CC for not trying in 2008. The Tribe was 1 win away from the World Series, He and Fausto both won 19 games and were both in the top 5 for the Cy Young with CC winning. And Cliff Lee was in the Minors reworking his game. In 2008, Cleveland had two of the top 5 CYA finalists, a returning and focused Cliff Lee and Victor Martinez, Grady Sizemore, Garko, Kelly Shoppach, Casey Blake, Peralta and Asdrubal Cabrera. Hell they'd even offload Eduardo Perez for Shin Soo Choo. But then CC showed up lazier than before, Fausto got injured (Cause his real name was Roberto and he was 3 years older than he claimed), Victor Martinez got injured early, Travis Hafner's knees and head went to shit after Mark Beuhrle drilled him in the head for the 5th time in 2 years, Joe Borowski pitched to a 7.56 ERA and got canned, Casey Blake got Traded for Carlos Santana, Jake Westbrook got injured and made 5 starts and wasn't seen again until 2010 went he got shipped to St. Louis in time to win the 2011 World Series. The hope of a 4 headed monster rotation with CC, Lee, Westbrook and Lee, along with a lineup of Allstars in Peralta, Martinez, Sizemore and Hafner, as well as young guys like Cabrera and Garko and the always steady veteran in Casey Blake, completely fell apart and it looked to me as a Tribe fan, the biggest reason was the ace just didn't even care anymore.

I was at the game, too... It's funny how that one game completely made you forget about all the bad shit before it. The confetti is coming down, people crying. And my guy (Craig Counsell) got walked to keep the inning alive and put a man on before Braun got to the plate. I remember that whole inning was so nerve-wracking because it was the 6th or 7th, and they HAD to score to make the most of Sabathias start. They had better hitters than Counsell come up, Corey Hart, for instance. But I was so nervous when he stepped to the plate because nobody was better at getting a hit or hitting into a double play than Corey Hart. Fortunately, he was struck out or lined out or popped up. Fans at the game were cheering him on the whole time, and I couldn't even watch. Then Counsell comes in, I immediately pop up and cheer because that guy comes through in the clutch, and he's one of us... he gets it, he gets the moment (but at the time, he was always a 200 hitter, yah know? So I get it). Everyone else goes quiet because it's Counsell, but then the count starts getting worked up, and people begin to rise and cheer. And he gets a walk. HUGE. Suddenly, our savior, the immortal Ryan Braun, comes to the plate, I believe, with two outs, and the rest is history. Constant cheering the whole way through from the whole crowd, it was electric. And when he smoked that home run, my god, it was a no-doubter as soon as you heard it make contact with the bat. Line-drive home run. Unbelievable moment. Why are you a fan. And let me tell you something else I think most people agree with. The Brewers made it further in 2011, but nobody really remembers that in comparison. 2008 and C.C. was the year that will always stand out.

CC will always be loved in Milwaukee. We knew we couldn't pay him what he'd get on the open market. But he was willing to carry this team during a contract year and risk losing millions for a team he only played on for about 4 months. The Brewers may not be the franchise they are today without him. No, they haven't won a World Series or anything like that, but before that season they were a joke my entire life. Now they're at least a respectable, competitive team year in and year out. And it all started with CC.

Yeah, I know the Cubs won a World Series, and the Brewers haven't. And yes, their trade for Soriano that year was just as legendary for Cubs fans as ours was for C.C. but again, you threw shade first.

@@brianshaker1885 it's more of a frustration at Lou and the Cubs. Felt like they quit trying after they clinched a playoff spot with 10 games left in the regular season. Not saying with any certainty that they would've beaten CC and the Brewers in game 162 if they would've used starting pitchers and players that weren't September call-ups, but it was frustrating that they didn't try harder in a game that meant something to a division rival, and they paid the price for it by getting swept in the postseason

CC was by far the most intimidating pitcher in the league that year, and it was not even close. What a beast.

Not sure if it’s been done, but Randy Johnson with Houston should have a video. I always think of cc’s brewers run and Randy’s Houston time together. 2 dominant lefties going to the NL and putting up one of the best second halves ever.

As a diehard Giants fan, wish it was SF who signed CC to that massive contract instead of the Yankees. Giants always seem to "finish second" when it comes to signing those big free agents. Funny how that works.

As a brewers fan, you look back and 2008 kinda made everything happen for 2011 and this golden age of brewers play because we could have been sellers if not for our wild card spot in 08

Who could forget when at the time CC got screwed out of the 2nd no hitter in Brewers history by the official scorer in Pittsburgh? I still don't see how that play was not an error. CC was dominating that afternoon.
