The Great Mariano Rivera just blew a save

[webbrick2010]

of course he was only protecting a one run lead

[webbrick2010]

and now he takes the loss

double to Murphy

single RBI by Wright takes second on throwing error by Gardner

single RBI by Duda

didn't get anyone out... hope this makes JJ feel a little bit better

Rivera's career save % is right at 90%. This year he's at 95% after yesterday's blown save. I'm glad the guy is retiring at the end of the year, and hope (for our sake) that he doesn't change his mind.

I wonder if NY will send him down to work out his problems.

This. I think closers get more attention/credit than they deserve, but Rivera is an exception.

The greatest failed starter in major league history.

Rivera will need to blow a few more in a row before JJ feels better.

Stan Musial was a "failed starter". (Thanks to an arm injury when he was still playing in Class D.)
