Little known facts from 2006 achievements:
# Games in which late inning relief pitcher pitched more than 1 inning and/or entered the game with at least 1 man on base and contributed more than .1 in the outing (2006 Regular Season):
- Mariano Rivera: 19 games
- Trevor Hoffman: 0 games
- Mariano Rivera: GF(59)/G(63)=94%
- Trevor Hoffman: GF(50)/G(65)=77%
- Mariano Rivera: 1 HR/25 IP (3 HR over 75 IP)
- Trevor Hoffman: 1 HR/10.5 IP (6 HR over 63 IP)
- P.S. ESPN, Fox, MLB and their financial hangers-on won't tell you any of this. The point is these are both good pitchers, but they are not similar and are used very differently.
