From Pinstripe Alley, 6/16/24:
Both Mariano Rivera and Alex Rodriguez were at Yankee Stadium last weekend [Fri. 6/7/24-Sun., 6/9/24] for the team’s much anticipated matchup with the Los Angeles Dodgers. While there, A-Rod met up with his former teammate and got him to record a video on how to throw the cutter. Rather interestingly, Rivera says that most pitchers who we say through cutters are actually throwing sliders, because they’re not releasing it like a fastball.
He also showed how he threw a sinker, taught to him by Mel Stottlemyer.”
