Mariano saves his team for the 500th time


Before it was only Hoffman, now comes Mariano Rivera thus giving baseball a reason to call it a club. Rivera got his 500th career save after closing a Yankees 4-2 victory over cross-street rivals New York Mets.

All-Time Saves Leaders

Trevor Hoffman-571
Mariano Rivera-500
Lee Smith-478
John Franco-424
Dennis Eckersley-390

Rumor has it that the LA Clippers and Detroit Lions are begging this men to study their sport and be part of their roster. Another marvelous idea!

  2. Yea. He would probably remember it more for that RBI than his 500th.
