Mariano Rivera Blows a Save

Something poetic about it being against the Mets. Jayson Stark:

The Elias Sports Bureau tells us this was the first time in Rivera’s career he’d ever blown a save without retiring a hitter. Think about that. It only took him 700 save opportunities! You can make that 747 if you count the postseason, because it never happened there, either.
