05/04: Tearful Mariano Rivera: "I Don't Know" if I Will Pitch Again

Posted by: Patrick
MLB.com's Bryan Hoch quotes a tearful Mariano Rivera, saying that he does not know if he will pitch again.

His head bowed and his eyes welling with tears, Mariano Rivera stood in the center of the visiting clubhouse at Kauffman Stadium and said that he does not know if he will pitch in the Major Leagues again.

"At this point, I don't know," Rivera said, repeating softly, "At this point, I don't know. I have to face this first."

Wow.

Update: MLB.com has video.

I'm absolutely crushed to wake up to this news. There are no guarantees in baseball, but Mo was as close as you could come. Sending prayers to Mr. Rivera for a full recovery. Your excellence goes far, far, far beyond this game.
