Tuesday night's episode of "Off the Bat" from the Fan Cave in New York will feature one of the Big Apple's own: Yankees ace CC Sabathia.

The left-hander will make his appearance on the program (11 p.m. ET on MTV2) alongside hosts Sway Calloway, Fat Joe, Chris Distefano and Melanie Iglesias. Sabathia tweeted that it was his "debut as executive producer."

The Cubs' Anthony Rizzo will also be on the broadcast, hitting meatballs with baseball bats along with Distefano. And A's pitcher Sonny Gray will be shown giving Calloway pitching lessons.

Other Major Leaguers featured on the program in the show's first season have included the Nationals' Bryce Harper and the Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton.
