Yankee Stadium Legacy: #66 Dave Righetti


Dave Righetti was named the American League Rookie of the Year as a starting pitcher in 1981 in Yankees pinstripes. Righetti soon was converted into a late inning reliever and a closer and quickly made a name for himself as the best closer in the game. "Rags" nailed down at least 25 saves in each of his first seven seasons as the Yankees closer and ranks second in Yankees history with 224 saves.
