Yes. Off Mariano Rivera. One can argue about who was the best closer of all time. But there can be no argument as to the best post season closer. Unreal numbers. 96 appearances, 85 unscored upon. 140 innings. 0.7 ERA. All with essentially one pitch. Amazing.
Let’s stick with HR theme. This will be harder. All-Time HR Leaders NL East teams
