Mariano Rivera is thought to have suffered not just a torn ACL, but also a torn meniscus, which would complicate his recovery.

Not a Yankee fan but it sucks to see a legend go out like that.

Something he has done for 20 years.

Pitchers shag in BP, always have, always will. It is a freak injury and could have happened just as easily in running/training.

I despise the Yankees, but have great respect for Jeter and Rivera. Hate to see this, I hope there is some chance he could return for another season.

He says that he's not going out like that.

Will return next season.

^ Good! I can't stand the Yankees but it sucks to see such a great player, or anyone, get hurt like that.
