When New York Yankees pitcher C.C. Sabathia takes a break after the baseball season, you can bet he likes to sink into a hot tub and relax. And what’s especially nice about his backyard in Northern California is that he can soak in a spa while a game or TV show is displayed on an outdoor TV.

Sabathia’s spa is located in a covered rock grotto, situated a few steps up from the family’s pool and veiled from view by a waterfall that cascades over its front. Inside is a weatherproof Sunbrite LCD TV and two OEM Systems in-wall speakers built into the concrete shell. C.C. also has a cabana is a sports lover’s dream, in the form of a five-display video wall with a sports ticker above and a 2,500-watt Linn surround system.

One 61-inch NEC LCD display is flanked by four 45-inch Sharp LCDs, and each screen is served by its own DirecTV HD satellite receiver.
