02/06: Rivera Gives Clinic for Ridgefield, Connecticut Kids

Posted by: Patrick
Justin Reynolds of TheRidgefieldPress.com reports on a clinic for kids that Mo held in Ridgefield, Connecticut.

“The game doesn’t start when the game starts,” Rivera said, seemingly summoning some of Yankee legend Yogi Berra’s wit. “The game starts when you get there. If the game starts a seven o’clock ... and you have to be there at three o’clock, the game starts at three o’clock.”

The kids then broke into groups, with Rivera teaching pitching mechanics. “The most important thing is, a pitcher has to have balance,” Rivera told the kids, going through the five points of his wind-up and delivery. “You gotta have a good, strong foundation.”
