What Yankees Records Does Mariano Rivera Hold?

Mariano Rivera is one of the best players in Yankees history. He has been the closer for many World Series titles. He is the all-time leader in saves. But, he also holds many Yankees records. His 2.21 ERA beats Russ Ford, a pitcher in the early 20th century. Obviously, the Yankees saves title belong to him, outpacing Dave Righetti by an incredible 422 saves. He has also played in 1103 games, better than Righetti's 522. His .212 average against ranks first. He also has never gotten a hit in 3 at-bats, but has walked and driven in a run. After his retirement this year, the Yankees will definitely have lost one of their great players.
