Orioles make short work of Sabathia

BALTIMORE — CC Sabathia failed to get out of the fifth inning Monday in a 10-5 loss to the Baltimore Orioles and Mark Teixeira couldn’t buy a hit with that $180 million the New York Yankees heaped upon him during the off-season.

Sabathia, who signed a $161-million, seven-year contract in December, gave up six runs and eight hits in 4 1/3 innings, walked five, threw two wild pitches and did not record a strikeout for the first time since July 25, 2005, at Oakland.

Teixeira was booed throughout the game by the crowd of 48,607, the largest on opening day in the 18-year history of Camden Yards; fans were angered that the first baseman did not sign with his hometown Orioles.

Adam Jones and Brian Roberts each had three of Baltimore’s 14 hits. The Orioles scored four runs in the eighth inning, two on Cesar Izturis’ home run.
