Yesterday, Andy Pettitte held a press conference to address the media in regard to his congressional testimony, his HGH use and where to go from here. Mo was
in attendance, along with Derek Jeter and Jorge Posada, in support of his long time teammate.
"I just wanted to be a support, be a teammate for him," Rivera said as he departed. "He's a great teammate of mine. We've been through tough times in baseball. Why not support him? I consider Andy my friend and he's one of my closest teammates I've ever had. I'm glad that I was here.
"He said what he had to say and he was open to everybody and I'm glad."
