It’s Hall of Fame weekend in Cooperstown, New York, and the new baseball inductees are on their way to town.
Apparently, it’s not always the most straightforward trip.
Yankees legend C.C. Sabathia, about to be inducted this weekend as a Hall of Famer, had some car troubles on the way.
He shared a post on X about it Thursday evening:
Car broke down on the way to Cooperstown 🤣🤣🤣 Anyone headed that way? pic.twitter.com/3v6De0Furg

Apparently the Sabathia family found a helping hand or two, because he eventually shared this follow-up post:
Made it to Cooperstown!! Damn y’all are some real ones to offer rides and everything 😂 Much love! It’s all part of the HOF memories 🙏🏾

Sabathia, who also starred for Cleveland and Milwaukee in his time in MLB, is sure to attract a big fanbase to Cooperstown as a popular Yankees pitcher.
That’ll likely be dwarfed by Japanese superstar Ichiro Suzuki’s fanbase, of course.
It should be a special weekend in Cooperstown. Hopefully everyone’s cars work the rest of the way.
