New York Yankees closer Mariano Rivera holds the record for the most saves of all time after picking up number 602 against the Minnesota Twins last night.
The 41-year-old is widely regarded as the greatest ever in his role and after his achievement received a huge ovation from the crowd at Yankee Stadium.
"For the first time in my career, I am on the mound alone," Rivera said.
"There was nobody behind me, nobody in front of me, and I'm still surrounded by so many people. I can't describe that feeling. It was priceless.
“It was a moment I didn't know could be like that. I was thanking God in that moment."
The Yankees won the game 6-4 as Rivera picked up his 43rd save of the campaign.
