Yankees to honor Mo Sept. 22 at Stadium
As Mariano Rivera continues his farewell tour on the current trip to Los Angeles, San Diego and Chicago, don’t think for a minute that the Yankees haven’t forgotten they reluctantly have to bid farewell to the game’s greatest closer also.
The Yankees announced Wednesday that they will hold a special ceremony to honor baseball’s all-time saves leader Sunday, Sept. 22, at Yankee Stadium prior to the inter-league game against the Giants. The Yankees will have three more home games after that date Sept. 24-26 against the Rays before ending the season with a three-game series at Houston Sept. 27-29.
Further details about the ceremony for Mo will be announced at a later date. Fans interested in purchased tickets should visit Yankees.com/ExitSandman.
