"Yankees Pitcher C.C. Sabathia's New Jersey Home\nThe Yankees southpaw is pitch-perfect at his New Jersey house\n\"To me home is about being comfortable with family,\" says New York Yankees pitcher C. C.

Mitchell says of the hues he chose for the great room. The painting is by Starlie Sokol-Hohne. Stark carpet. Kravet patterned pillow fabric.\n\"We told James and Martin that what we wanted was a house that was kid-friendly, classic but modern\u2014yet not so modern that it felt hard,\" says Amber Sabathia. Mitchell incorporated an aquarium into one of the family room's walls. Kravet sofa and drapery fabrics.\nThe study serves as Amber Sabathia's office, where she holds meetings for the couple's foundation, PitCCh In, and as a trophy room for the many awards C. C. Sabathia has won, including his 2007 AL Cy Young award.\nMitchell designed an oversize bed for the master bedroom. Bedside lamps, Uttermost.
