One Day We'll Tell Our Grandchildren We Witnessed the Great Rivera
There isn't anything to be said about Mariano that hasn't been said by those who can say it a lot better than me, but I will say my favorite part of his breaking the saves record yesterday was that after the final strike he just started calmly walking toward home plate, exactly like he did after save 1, 188, 422 and 511 etc. If it had been me I would've pulled out a confetti gun and sprayed it all over myself while shouting through a bullhorn I paid a batboy to throw to me "WARNING: THIS IS EMERGENCY. EVERYBODY REPORT TO THEIR PARTY STATIONS." and then assaulted the crowd with 45 minutes of my doing The Robot. Maybe that's why Mo is Mo and I'm me; for fuck's sake, I'm still patting myself on the back for "report to their party stations."
