Chien-Ming Wang: The starter had to wait 11 outs to see if he was going to get his first win in 379 days. So, I asked, what were you thinking when you saw Rivera come in the game?
“We’re winning the game,” Wang said.
Wang had a baseball in his locker and he planned to have Rivera sign it. “For my son,” he said. “I want him to know I played with Mo.”
Justin Wang is 12 days old and his old man has had 24 of his 55 wins saved by Rivera. Only Andy Pettitte (59), Mike Mussina (49), Roger Clemens (35), El Duque Hernandez (32) and David Wells (25) have had more,
當只剩下11個出局數就可以拿下相隔379天的首勝
亞伯拉罕問建仔 你心裡看到mo上場了有什麼想法？
阿民：那就是贏球的時刻來啦！

下面是其他隊友的反應
Derek Jeter: “Yes, No question,” he said without a moment of hesitation when asked if Rivera was the greatest he has played with. “There has never been anybody more consistent. Mo is great in the regular season, the postseason, even spring training.”
Jorge Posada: “I think I’m as excited as he is,” the catcher said. “This means a lot to me, to have caught this game. That man … we’ve been through a lot together. He makes my job easier, he makes all our jobs easier. He’s the best ever.”
Joe Girardi: The manager was the catcher when Mariano recorded his first save on May 18, 1996 against the Angels. Fittingly enough, Andy Pettitte got the win and Jeter was 2 for 4 with an RBI hitting eighth.
With the Yankees up 8-5, Mo entered the game in the ninth inning. He struck out Randy Velarde. Mike Aldrete singled and then Garret Anderson grounded into a double play.
Girardi that when he caught Mo in spring training of 1996, he knew the Yankees had something special. “I remember thinking to myself, ‘Who is this guy?’ Then he had the best, most dominant year I think I’ve ever seen a reliever have.”
The numbers bear that out. Mo pitched 107.2 innings over 61 appearances with a 2.07 ERA. He allowed 73 hits and fanned 130 with 34 walks.
Cody Ransom: Mo used Cody’s bat and batting gloves again. Cody, no fool, put the bat in a sanitary stocking after the game and was taking it home as a souvenir. Mo said he was welcome to it. “It’s his bat,” he said.
Mariano Rivera: Ever the class act, Rivera talked about how special it was for him to be congratulated by Jeter, Posada and Pettitte, his three long-time teammates. Jeter, he said, has always supported him and said the right thing at the right time.
Mo had a box of balls after the game and was planning to sign them for his teammates.
