This week we have looked back at memorable games and achievements during Rivera's career. Today we look at two moments where the fans had the chance to express their feelings and how deeply it affected him.
Robinson Cano, for one thing, might be gone next year. In truth, they overachieved in a 2013 filled with injury and PED scandal. Most teams wouldn't have hit .500 if they lost a key player seemingly every week.
Regardless of what team you root for, there is no denying that a very special moment occurred Thursday night in the Bronx, when Mariano Rivera made his final appearance wearing the famous Yankee pinstripes.
Joe Girardi told WFAN's Mike Francesa on Thursday that he expects the Yankees to look a lot different next season, but is not considering himself one of the changes that will be made.
Cano's got a savant's swing, dancer's feet, and a pitcher's arm. He plays a game for a living and is living large. His game is pristine and his personality is perfect for New York City. And the Yankees need to say goodbye.

There's no question that the Yankees would love to bring the five-time All-Star back, but it all comes down to how much money he will command. It could get out of hand, even for the Yankees.
"It's a pit," Selig said. "It reminds me of old County Stadium and Shea Stadium. We need to deal with that. I've had a committee working on it for two or three years, and there's no question we're going to have to solve that problem."
