I love how the commentators remained silent and didn't talk over what was happening.
Because the moment speaks for itself and they, as pros, know it and they turn into fans at such a moment.
They nailed it.
Michael Kay is my dad, thank you!
I’ll tell bin you said that🙏🙏🙏
Doesn't get better than Kay
Some moments are far too precious to be ruined with a lot of heavy-handed words. The commentators’ silence through all this is beautiful!!!
Joe Buck would have been like: There you can see, Mariano, with tears in his eyes....what a moment....theres Jeter.....what a moment this is......and there he goes, off the mound, for a final time, what a moment in Yankee Stadium, He tips his cap, wow, what a moment.
@@jesuschristislord6790 or now it would be “let’s take a look at this beautiful moment with stat-cast!”
Complete pros! They could have ruined this moment for everyone for a lifetime, they knew their assignment.
@@ajp5616 because it ruins the moment this is something mo will look back on for the rest of his life you think he wants to hear that
Back at the wall
Fun fact when he walked off the field so did 42 for the last official jersey number 42 in baseball
#6 is next
@@JaRa911 that’s basketball
@@liamclarkin8997 yea and?
@@JaRa911 I was jus sayin 6 isn’t retired in baseball
Jackie would be proud
The classiest, humblest, most dominant player at any position. One of the true great players and great human beings!
❤❤❤
The goat closer
@@MyStupidRUclipsHandlepeople can debar whose the goat in a lot of subjects sports positions etc but you cannot come up with anyone close to what Mo was. Goat indeed.
Having Andy and Derek go pull Mo from the game may go down as one of the greatest moves of Girardi's managerial career. Absolutely brilliant.
***** I'm sure he loved it but I doubt he expected it. that was clearly not a scripted moment.
Girardi planned it. Never told Mariano .... and it was best not to.
INDEED!
TheJMSESQ favorite sports moment for me. Ever.
@Lloyd Bonafide you are a moron
Remember kid, there's heroes and then theres legend. Heroes get remembered, but legends never die. #42
I remember that being in the sandlot movie
Deep!
Call Me Hunky yea lol that’s what bae Ruth said to what’s his name..? The teenager the best one there?? I remember that I just forget his name. Do not ask why I'm commenting 3 years later. Lol
Damn skippy!👍

This was the moment when I finally felt that my childhood was long gone. Seeing so many of my favorite Yankee players fading away into history. What a moment.
Yup. Happens to everyone. I had the same feeling when Emmitt Smith retired.
100% votes for the Hall of Fame ain't fading away.
Dude. Spot on.
😭 so true
Same. Don Mattingly is my favorite player of all time and I worshipped him as a kid. I don't have to mention any of his accomplishments because you already know them I'm sure. One of the hardest things was when he missed out on getting a shot at a ring in 95.' That was my senior year of high school and would end up being his final year as a player in the majors. The very next year The Yanks won the series. I think that was the moment my childhood started to end and real life began. It was sad but I am fortunate to look back on that time as one of the best times of my life cheering for one of the classiest acts in baseball history.
I just can't imagine the feeling. You've worked your whole life and dedicated it to one thing, and now it's over. Being done with sports after senior year was hard enough. I can't imagine a lifetime
Yeah. When I was in high school, I worked very hard to get a spot on the football team and I did. After my very last career game which ended in a double overtime loss in the 2nd round of the playoffs in November 2019, when I saw the game end, the waterworks began to flow into my eyes as I knew that after working so hard to become a high school football player, it was finally over as I became emotional and exited in tears. It was very tough for me to say goodbye to my teammates, and the game I loved.
Very difficult. I'm facing these moments in the next few years myself and don't know what I will do. This video, especially the last moments of him in the dugout, speaks volumes of how was thinking.
I cried my SR year cos I knew it would be my last time ever playing damn I just got teary eyed
Those are my thoughts EXACTLY! they've been doing this since they were KIDS! and now it's over... #WOW!!!
@@jhanasah09and to go out as one of the most feared and respected closers in history..
"How can you not be romantic about baseball?" Not a Yankees fan, but as a baseball fan, this gives me chills. What a legend.
People are weird saying baseball is dying 🙄 ya right.
Yes that’s one of the things I love about baseball fans, we don’t have to like the same teams but we see and respect greatness
I grew up a Mets fan but I’ve wept every time I’ve watched this.
@@psalm37v4 Guess what? You GET it!
I have never been a Yankees fan and never will. But Mariano Rivera was posibly the greatest closer in baseball. A class act, a consummate player and an emotional tip of the cap. This is what all athletes should strive for.
Yes he was a class act! And there's NO doubt he IS the greatest closer of all time.....its not even close.....
vlredreign I hate the Yankees but this guy is definitely the best closer. There are some really good ones but not as good as Rivera.
I loved the. Yankees and was in tears seeing him leave
I hate the Yankees with a passion but Rivera was one of the best closers of the game.
what do you mean "probably". Mo is the greatest closer of all time. There is no dispute. Name me someone better. I dare you!
When Andy and Derek walked up to the mound, it was like, "Hey kid, welcome to Valhalla."
😂
This is GOLD! LOL.
Yes yes yes yes yes spot on hahah
HAHAHAHAHAHA
Rivera's change of expression when he realizes what's happening and what it all means reminds me of Jim Bouton's line in Ball Four, “A ballplayer spends a good piece of his life gripping a baseball, and in the end it turns out that it was the other way around all the time.”
Baseball's not always perfect. MLB doesn't always get it right. But this moment in time, was a showcase of everything good that baseball is.
M Sado couldnt have said it better
No truer words have been written M. #42
M Sado Amen to that, M, amen to that
This and Cal’s 2131 would rank as my two favorite baseball moments
It's the rarest of instances when you have a class exemplified hand the baton to another during his most gracious exit! It was beyond fitting that one of baseball's best men (Jeter) comes out to the mound to embrace another best man (Mo) as he bids farewell!
Welcome to the Hall, Mo.
Welcome
Unanimously!
@@paulamiles9559 First year of eligibility and first ballot.
💯 pct of the vote!!!
@@notalk90thst79 I FEEL KG JR DESERVE 💯 OF HOF BALLOT MYSELF.
I don’t think that Jackie Robinson could have hand picked himself a better player to be the last to wear 42. A player that has always been the standard for amazing ball play and unconditional respect and kindness. Values that Jackie’s memory commits us to remember every day. Mo embodied it perfectly.
This was done perfectly from the start. Pettitte and Jeter pulling him from the game and not a word being said from the announcers. Perfect.
This is a video I keep coming back to again and again when I want to be nostalgic/sad/happy. Such a beautiful moment.
just this once, crying is allowed in baseball
sfox09 So long as Jimmy Dugan doesn't find out.
sfox09 thank god woody doesn’t know about this. Sorry it’s just that whenever I see that part in a league of their own, I always think of toy story Woody as a baseball manager.
It was a moment to cry, but then what about Derek Jeter's retirement?
There's no crying in baseball!!!
sfox09 a World Series win ?
You can tell by the look in his eyes he doesn't want to leave the diamond. Man what an emotional moment.
Only player in MLB history to go in the HOF 100%. Nuff said. Mo was beyond human and just a Godlike closer and classy. Not a showboat, never spoke ill of anyone, never got thrown out. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.😁🙂 You'll never see a closer or a guy like this ever again in the game.
And did it with one pitch , it’s insane
1:46 It's a small thing but I loved when Girardi quickly picks up the ball and gently places the ball back in Mariano's glove.
Bravo to TV broadcasters Michael Kay and Ken Singleton for not saying a word for almost 5 minutes.
Do you think the "It's all about us" dynamic duo on the radio could have done that---even if they were on TV?
"OF ALL THE DRAMATIC THINGS I"VE EVER SEEN, JOHN!!!!!!!!!"
Best closer in the live ball era. From a Red Sox fan.
The closer was created during the live ball era but either way I still agree with you
DAMN mad props!✌
You're a complete moron jerkoff if you don't say he's the best ever.. sox fan or not.. glad you're not delusional.
@kyndakrazy there is a argument to be made that the only one who could be better is Trevor hoffman
kyndakrazy done would say Hoffman or Lidge for a couple of years not me tho
You can just see Jeter before that hug, watching his friend's career flash before his eyes and trying not to cry while holding that smile. Much respect.
Ken Singleton saying, "I'll tell you this....that's gonna be one tough act to follow." Icing on the cake. No one could have said it better, good times Mo.
If I ever need a good cry, I just turn this on.
It's a sure thing.
CFDEngCo3 Rght there with ya My Friend... Lotta history,Lotta Respect but most of all Love for the game & Each other!!!
I was there and yes I choked up
i am crying right now....
CFDEngCo3 Saving Private Ryan is a pretty good cry too...
Baseball does the best farewell to any great player, because baseball fans genuinely love their team. As a Cardinal fan, I still teared up watching this, because this man gave his heart out to baseball, the fans, and the Yankees. Mo, you will be missed.
Edit: I expect Yadi’s send off to be epic, he deserves one.
Dude, I love your profile picture.
3 years later, why comment, right? I know, but I couldn't help it. Haha
Turtle power! 🐢🐢🐢🐢
amen indeed after all everybody in baseball knows exactly where he's going next year
Class act and a classy comment!
You said it well Mike, respect is deserved
I love the cardinals
When he went on the field to tip his hat for the second time. Legend popped in my head. I believe every baseball fan stood up and showed respect to him at that moment
When he emerged from that dugout the entire stadium erupted! This man is a LEGEND!!!!! Don’t mess with New York, they don’t play!!! Family in Ohio is what keeps me here. One day I’ll move to that beautiful city!!!
The fact that he was the last to wear #42 just seems so fitting.
Man I'm not supposed to say this as a lifelong Braves fan, but I'll be damned if I wasn't a Yankee that night. God bless Mariano what a class act. I love baseball.
+Matt Sharpe I'm a die hard braves fan as well but I respected Jeter and Mariano a lot. Mariano especially since I am a closing pitcher as well
The expression on Mariano’s face when he saw Andy and Derek coming out to get him #42 💙
Red Sox fan here and this makes me cry every time. Class act. Best in the game. Nothing but respect.
Almost 10 years ago. Still the GOAT. Baseball is the best
This is one of the countless reasons as to why baseball will forever be the greatest game of them all. Thank you Mariano and baseball for all the moments and for knowing when to give us, the fans those exact moments we didn't even know we needed.
Life long Cubs fan here
There will never be another Rivera. PERIOD.
Mad Respect
Player
@@mytravels8685 - yep. I hate it for y’all. Coppolella did that to my Braves many years ago & I still haven’t recovered. the lifetime ban of him from MLB makes it better but the damage was done. I feel for you Cubs fans that just went through it. Rizzo should never wear another team’s uniform. it’s a damned shame.
The look on Rivera's face when he saw Petite and Jeter walking to the mound was priceless !!
I wasn’t a Yankees fan but this guy deserves this kind of exit! What a true sniper for many years. His cutter was butter.
Mike Voss
I understand what you mean,
I'm an Angels Fan - have been since i was little growing up here in L.A. practically had the whole team gathered around me at my 7th Birthday Party..
I was never a NY Fan myself,
but you hit home when you said this guy deserves this kind of exit..
I could not have said it better myself Mike, much respects & wishing you & your family there good health & well being..

Thank you and to you as well.
One of the most emotional moments I've ever seen in baseball or sports for that matter.
Mariano was one of the classiest professional athletes I've seen in my lifetime.
The Rays players cheering from their dugout gave me goosebumps...!!!
never was a Yankee fan, but always had respect for the class act that was Rivera. fitting tribute to one of the greats
The greatest closer & last guy who wore No.42, and soon-to-be-first-ballot-HOFer!!!
He might be the first player to get in with 100% of the vote.
If he doesn't get it, then Jeter will. If neither those two or Ortiz get it, when something is broken with the voting system.
Greg Sirico well here we are in 2019 and some dumbass Red Sox writer saying he refuses to vote Mo in
@@GSirico He sure as fuck was the only person to get 100% of the vote.
@@GSirico Nailed it! He shouldn't have been the first, but he deserved it
At 3:41 the Ray's are clapping but they are thinking, "Thank God we don't have to face that cutter anymore!!"
bigbadgrizzly44 They were like I have to clap because it's the right thing to do and I wonder which girl I am bangin tonight
🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rumor has it that Mariano Rivera son wants to be a Yankee Pitcher... .I know someone who could teach him to throw a cutter...
ikr
Let’s all appreciate how sweet this moment is
I'm not crying, your crying.... Baddest man to ever step on the mound in the late innings, best intro and walk out in all of sports and years of loyalty to my Yankees. Thank you Mo for everything you did in the sport of baseball and for the yankees
As a Sox fan I can honestly say I LOVE that man. Mariano is a complete class act and Red Sox Nation will always love him.
He did give you the World Series so....
Even as a die hard Red Sox fan I am so thankful for this recording... love this stuff man
For a minute I forgot we r dealing with a pandemic smh, this never gets old, stay safe everyone!

And to the MAJORITY of people who had COVID & got through it just fine.
I want to thank the good Lord for making me a Yankee fan and for living during Mo's full career. And for the dozens of games I was able to see him pitch live and in person. Going to his HOF induction ceremony topped it off. Thanks Mo for all the memories!! 🙏🏻✌🏻❤
Still watch this from time to time to witness a legend's final game. Crying is allowed.
I'm a huge red sox fan but I have the most upright respect for this man he's done plenty of years and kicked ass every time he deserves a retirement
Such a sweet guy. He deserved the magic life he was blessed with.
I loved how the catcher just stood there looking bewildered.
I'm not even a Yankee fan by any means, but this was well deserved. He wore 42 with grace.
I still can barely believe I was there that night. This and jeters last game were my best experiences ever
Na. My best experience ever was the final game at the old stadium. I stayed there until this police officer told me I had to leave. I told him just give me another minute. And after that he walked me out the stadium.
Courtney Gibson now that's a good story. I remember my last visit to the stadium (the day before the final game there), took me a while to get out of that place. But being at Jeter's last game does the job for me.
Courtney Gibson I traveled back to NY in august 2008 to see the old stadium for the last time...I was sitting with the bleacher creatures.....very similar to what happened with u...security allowed me to stand there for about 10 minutes to soak it all in for the final time in my life....two best moments for me...jeters last game ( still have the moment recorded on my cell).... And game 2 of the 95 alds ( the Jim leyritz game)....I've been to over 300 games in my life... When mattingly hit that hr in the 6th inning.... I've NEVER heard that stadium louder....I was sitting in the first row of the right field upper deck....sierra went yard right before mattingly.... O Neill went yard in the 7th off Charlton... Then leyritz hit the 2 run hr off Belcher....and I believe pat Kelly was on first...still the best game I evet attended
Andre Vaughn that old stadium bring me back so many memories in my lifetime when I was a little kid. I used to live near Mt Eden Ave which is 3 stops away from 161st when you take the 4 train.
Courtney Gibson nice!!!! I know EXACTLY where that is! I was also at the day night double header in 2000 when gooden beat the mets at Shea in the first game.... Took the subway to Yankee stadium and watched piazza get beaned by Clemens in the second game.....I was sitting behind the plate in the upper deck....
Years later and I still cry every time I watch this.
Mo! Greatest closer of all time! No one will EVER top his greatness! Class act to the core!
So proud to say that I was able to live through his era! Words can’t even describe how awesome that exit was!
Let’s go Yankees!
I have picture of Mo holding mine grand son when he was two years old wow what a memory the Best of the Best..........
Just to be nicknamed the Sandman is enough as it is. Greatest closer of all time.
And baseball was never the same again. we love you, MO
42
Still one of the greatest moments in baseball.. EVER
I can watch this a million times, and tears will still come out every time!! Love you Rivera 💞❣💝
The class this man posses is unimaginable. As a Red Sox fan my dad and Grandpa told me you can root against the Yankees but always hold Rivera with respect. I have nothing but positive things to say about this man. May the Sandman exit with peace and happiness.
Coming from a lifetime Giants fan, I tip my cap to Rivera. I could only imagine what that moment was like for him.
You will not get this type of emotion and intimacy in any other professional sport. Baseball has an iconic romantacism to it that is unparalleled.
Legend in every sense of the word 🙌🏽
I'm not even a Yankee fan and that gave me chills.
One of the greatest moments in sports.
Never a huge yanks fan, but i have the utmost respect for Mariano, his achievements, and his class.
All these years later I still can’t get through this video with out crying!!!
You know, if you take just a moment while watching the first one hug it out with Mariano -
you can actually feel the emotion..
Mariano
You've Made Lots Of People Proud, You're Most Definitely -
Very Powerful
Very Priceless
Very Legendary
Very Unforgettable
Thank You For Everything..

Not even a yanks fan and i cried
THIS.... This is why I love Baseball.
Un jugador que entregó su corazón al juego, a los Yankees y al mundo. Honor para Mariano Rivera.
That's the stuff you gotta love about baseball; camaraderie, sportsmanship and appreciation. Even the opposing team had stood and showed their respect. And, I'm not even a big baseball fan...
I've said it before, but I'll say it again. I will always hate the Yankees, but Mariano was one of the few players of that team that really earned my respect and liking. Not just because of his dominance, but his class, and overall personality on the field. He was one of the most unique players the Yankees ever had, and I don't think even Jeter had such class.
I really hope Rivera's greatness is not matched for a long time. He earned his greatness.
my thoughts exactly
who d fuck needs to listen to u anyway
Oh god, who gives a shit if you dislike the Yankees or not. Why does everyone have to preface their message with this or "I'm a fan of ____" before they go on to say how much they respect a player. No one cares.
The Yankees have had some really great, respectable players. Derek Jeter and Bernie Williams are two of my all time favorites, and like you I am not a Yankee fan.
Leo R. Because most comments come from three types of people. 1. Fans that don't see him pitch regularly because their respective team is in another division, but respect who he was as a pitcher. 2. Fans that saw him pitch for years like me, A RED SOX fan, just for your personal knowledge, and saw him dominate for years on end, but respect who he was as a pitcher, 10 fold.
And 3. People like you that leave comments for the mere fact that they need to show their distaste for someone else's opinion and how they express it. The true comment that "no one cares" about.
So, that's why.
I am a grown ass woman in 2018, still getting choked up and emotional watching this.
Shout out to the greatest closer of all time.
Been a fan at age 12..now 72 and it hurts to see such great Yankees come and go...it brings tears to my eyes and all those great games and memories....he was the best closer I believe....a wonderful man...I miss them all....
As a Red Sox Fan, That what was one of the greatest moments in baseball history. Not only an outstanding closer but an incredible human being.
"Tears and cheers" is absolutely right. I cried like a baby watching this live at the time. And again watching this video. Any true baseball fan could not deny how incredible Mo is. It would have been nice to see Jorge Posada make a surprise appearance and walk out with Derek Jeter and Andy Pettite. Even watching Joe Girardi cry brought me back to when he used to catch for Mo back in the 1990s. So much history with all those guys. Incredible.
This guy was so good it's hard to comprehend. I thought I saw the best when I watched Jordan play, but I think Mariano may have more respect than Jordan will ever have. For years all the Yankees had to do was get the lead by the 8th inning and the game was over. Unbelievable stats, but the postseason this guy is so far the best ever. Mets fan here, should have rooted for this guy.
@Jack Straw His work ethic was tremendous and u could tell he took care of himself to where he didn't let himself wilt! He was 45 that night! Unbelievable
GOD made a closer, his name is Mariano Rivera and he not only had the most saves and got 100% HOF vote but lived in these rare times a clean life and cared about others. Yes, you can do the same thing just know that doing the right thing pays off.
And by doing (off the field) and playing (on the field) it the RIGHT way as well! U may never again see not just one guy, but a franchise at one period in time, have multiple guys who all played and displayed themselves with the utmost class and respect for the game and it's integrity (Mo, Jeter, O'Neill, Bernie)! Unprecedented in the best of human form
@@bradlewis6514 Posada
Imagine having a last day at work like this where that many people respected and appreciated your contributions in the city of your gift.
Class. Respect. Love. New York Yankees. No better sports team anywhere.
One of the very few times crying will be acceptable in baseball! It's tough seeing him go, but it was an absolute gift having him. Mo is a living legend and will be for a long time to come! Thank you for everything Sandman. You will be missed!
Mariano is the best closer the MLB will ever see. He’s the reason that I throw a cutter when I pitch. I have nothing but the utmost respect for No. 42
Even as a red sox fan. I started crying. This was my childhood
I will admit as a 19 year old when this happened. I cried like a mf.
I grew up on this team from day one. It was a tough night for me seeing this. It was more then a farewell to Mariano but also what this team worked towards to from the early 90's. Ohhhnh do I miss those years of dominance and utter JOY and ECSTACY!!! Good times, good times...😭😭
His expression of humility, and gratitude at 0:08..... and at 3:46.......among so many others. WHAT A HUMAN BEING !! Speechless regarding whether we deserve this kind of person in our world.
Watching in 2021 and still get a little emotional... Mo is one of NYC’s most loved Yankee!
This moment literally had my grandfather teary, and standing in ovation all the way in California. What a moment of greatness! And in the grand scheme of it all, by moment I mean what a career!
all those saves with basically the same cutter is what made it even more special
Red Sox fan from birth here. Respect all the way for Mariano ! Brilliantly talented and a true competitor. Humble, selfless, honorable man ! Thank you for playing this game
We’ll never see another one like him!
GOAT 🐐
A true legend. So lucky to see such greatness in my lifetime
You gotta respect Mo!
Thank you to Red Sox and all other team fans who came here to celebrate this legend. We are glad you like him as much as we do 🙏🏻
As a long time red Sox fan here, have to say much respect for Mariano Rivera he was a total class and in my book the greatest closer of my time..congratulations to him.
What a Class Act. He was the Greatest .
I'm a Reds fan. Rivera is an icon! Legendary! Big props to him!
This is still one of my favorite moments in sports EVER!!! #Mariano
More people have been to the moon(12) than have scored against Rivera in his 53 game postseason career(11).
