Following the Yankees' worst year since 1992, there are a whole lot of questions and not many answers. Manager Joe Girardi hasn't even committed to returning.
"I want to keep that memory of mine," Rivera told the crowd of 40,542, second largest of the season at Minute Maid Park behind Opening Day. "For that, I apologize. You guys deserved more, but I'm being a little selfish."
Andy Pettitte's final start was a storybook finish -- a complete game win over the Astros on Saturday.
Mariano Rivera told reporters in Houston that his Yankee Stadium farewell was the final appearance of his glorious career.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi says legendary closer Mariano Rivera can play center field in Houston if he wants to.
I had just come from the clubhouse, along with a throng of reporters, swarming and barking at him like hyenas. Everyone wants to be like him. Everyone wants to be him. Everyone wants a piece of his peace.
David Robertson got the save as Mariano Rivera looked on, and the New York Yankees got a glimpse of their future in a 3-2 win over Houston on Friday night that sent the Astros to their team-record 13th consecutive loss.
His 652 regular-season saves are a record, as are his 42 in the postseason. But Rivera isn't defined by numbers.
Rivera put his head on Andy Pettitte's right shoulder and sobbed. The end had arrived, at least for his career in the Yankees' home pinstripes.
This week we have looked back at memorable games and achievements during Rivera's career. Today we look at two moments where the fans had the chance to express their feelings and how deeply it affected him.
Robinson Cano, for one thing, might be gone next year. In truth, they overachieved in a 2013 filled with injury and PED scandal. Most teams wouldn't have hit .500 if they lost a key player seemingly every week.
During four minutes of thunderous chanting from the sellout crowd 48,675 began, an overcome Rivera sobbed as he buried his head on the shoulder of Pettitte, who also is retiring when the season ends Sunday, and then hugged Jeter.
Regardless of what team you root for, there is no denying that a very special moment occurred Thursday night in the Bronx, when Mariano Rivera made his final appearance wearing the famous Yankee pinstripes.
Derek Jeter and Andy Pettitte came to the mound to remove him with two outs in the ninth inning.
Yankees manager Joe Girardi says he's thinking about allowing Rivera to do it this weekend, when the Yankees finish their season with a three-game series at the Houston Astros.
It seems that literally everyone wants a piece of saying goodbye to Mariano Rivera.
Despite baseball's highest opening-day payroll at $230 million, the Yankees failed to claim one of the 10 playoff berths. "It hurts," manager Joe Girardi said after it was over.
On Wednesday, we looked at two of the most emotional nights at the old Yankee Stadium. Today we take a look at memories made in the first year of New York's current baseball stadiums.
The Yankees have invited ticketholders who suffered through the Mariano Rivera bobblehead fiasco Tuesday night for free admission to a game during the 2014 regular season.
Thousands of Yankees fans were angered Tuesday night when a late shipment of Mariano Rivera bobbleheads led to confusion and long, long lines to redeem vouchers for the tardy giveaway.
"Being able to throw the last pitch in that stadium ... it was good, it was good," Rivera tells WFAN's Sweeny Murti.
The Yankees wasted several opportunities against the wild Matt Moore in a 7-0 loss to Tampa Bay on Tuesday night that pushed them to the brink of missing out on the postseason for the second time in 19 years.
