CONGRATULATIONS MARIANO RIVERA ON 434 CAREER SAVES

Today Mariano earned his 400th regular season save-- a 6 out save entering in the 8th inning with 2 men on base, to add to his 34 post season saves. He induced 2 ground ball double plays, 1 in each inning. Of the many who'll minimize this to huge audiences is 1 of the Red Sox radio announcers. He just said it was Mo's 400th, but the only reason Gossage & Sutter didn't have more is because they pitched more than 1 inning--and here Mo has just pitched 2 innings, 6 outs inheriting 2 baserunners. Gee, the lies & misinformation about Mariano never end. He's anything but a 1 inning pitcher. And today's record came against the World Champion Chicago White Sox, whose MVP Jermaine Dye was struck out by Mariano to end the game.
