Rivera Finishes Off Rangers 7-6 for 300th Save
It took just 1 innings of work for Minnesota reliever Mariano Rivera to collect career save number 300. The 33-year-old hurler gave up no runs and 1 hit during his outing as the Twins toppled the Texas Rangers 7-6.

"The milestone weighs on your mind a bit, so I'm glad it's over," a relieved Rivera said after the game. "I was tired of talking about it and I'm sure my teammates were tired of it, too."

During his career Rivera has 300 saves with a 25-31 record and a 2.88 ERA.
