Got a lot of people here excited because we have the greatest closer of all time, a Hall of Famer, a world champion, one of the greatest Yankees to ever pinstripes.

Very, very fortunate to be sitting next to on this feel-good Friday, Mariano Rivera.

Mariano, good morning. How are you?

Gio, man, good morning. Good morning. I'm excited, man. I'm feeling great and excited for this day. Yeah, and we got hot sauce here, too. And I am a hot sauce guy. I'm so happy that I have this. I'm bringing this home and using this as weekend. And this is the cutter here. Mo's Heat the cutter. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's the one. This is the one. That's the baby, yes. All right, so the habanero pepper, and this is like Panamanian recipe, so this is something special, right? Yes, more than special. You know what I mean? Coming from Panama, a small town called Puerto Caymito, and then landing here in New York and being with the best thing it is. Yes. Sorry. Thank you.

I'm a Met fan.

You know that.

You're a Yankee.

I get it.

I understand.

So, you know, I mean, I have the opportunity to play here.

I mean, the best place there is in the earth.

You know, and then bringing something out from also my hometown most heat that saw is most heat I like it it's awesome it sounds good right it sounds great and by the

way as he sat up here I said you know Mo this is Al Dukes I think you ripped the

ball down third base when I was playing third base for our softball game and what what did Mo say to me, oh, we got to get those games going again.

And I said, Mo, I said the same thing, but these guys quit on me.

One game a year sounds great.

One year's guys, it's no brain.

Anyway, that, that says to me is something special.

You know, I brought everything that I have for New York and the New York fans,

and bringing this back, you know, bringing Moles back is something special.

For me, it's something that I will never forget

and continue pushing forward to get this thing where they need to be.
