There have been short periods where closers were better but they didnt last more than a year or two the level Rivera has been for his career. Rivera is easily the best and has been even better in the playoffs. I can't stand the Yankees but when I think of a unhitable pitch, Rivera's 95 mph cutter is the first that comes to mind. |

You mean hit with authority. It is very hittable, you just end up with a broken bat. When i think of unhittable i think randy johnsons 90 mph slider in his hayday
