2. 2 6 4 Sports ▶Reading Comprehension Rivera Records No. 602 Save New York Yankees' closer Mariano Rivera rewrote the history of Major League Baseball by earning his 602nd save of his career on September 19. Rivera retired Trevor Plouffe, Michael Cuddyer and Chris Parmelee in the 9th inning to secure the Yankees’ 6-4 win over the Minnesota Twins, breaking Trevor Hoffman’s record of 601 saves. “I think it shows what he means to baseball and what he’s done,” said Yankees manager Joe Girardi, praising his best choice player for the last inning of a winning game. Born in 1969 in Panama, the right-handed pitcher joined the Yankees organization in 1990. He made his major league debut in 1995. He started his career in the major league level as a starting pitcher, but converted to a relief pitcher and became the Yankees’ closer in 1997. Since then, he has established himself as one of the best closers in baseball history. Rivera is not the type of pitcher with a variety of pitches. In fact, he mostly uses only one type of pitch, cut fastball. Most batters facing Rivera know what’s coming and they have seen it for years. But still, it is good enough to make the 41-year-old stand dominant on the mound and close the game. Rivera marked 602 saves in 674 games. In his 17-year-career, he helped the Yankees win five World Series champion titles and Rivera has been selected as All Star 12 times. Rivera is expected to enter the Baseball Hall of Fame after retirement. ☞ Choose the best answer based on the article.
