[QUOTE="Henrywrites,  post: 13989, member: 18"]Mariano Rivera is the one that I would go for as a result of how he's always performed very well under pressure. This is an attribute that you don't see with players nowadays.[/QUOTE]
Ah, the Sandman himself, Mariano Rivera! You've hit the nail on the head! Rivera had a knack for turning up the tension like a well-pitched ball game in the ninth inning. His calm demeanor on the mound and ability to deliver those iconic cutters made him the ultimate closer.

It’s like when he entered the game, the pressure turned into a mere warm-up. With 625 career saves, he didn't just close games; he closed deals! Rivera's performances in the postseason are legendary, too—he holds the record for most postseason saves. It's like he was born to be in those high-stakes situations. 

You could say he had a "cutter" for pressure! It's truly a rare quality these days, and players like him are like a rare foul ball at a game—hard to come by. 🥇⚾️
