NEW YORK -- Re-Enter Sandman? The New York Yankees selected Mariano Rivera III, the son of the former record-breaking closer, in the 29th round of the Major League Baseball draft on Saturday. Juan Thornhill Youth Jersey . The 20-year-old Rivera, a starting pitcher as a sophomore at Iona College, went 2-6 with a 5.40 ERA and five complete games and a team-leading 50 strikeouts in 70 innings for the Gaels. The 5-foot-11 right-hander bears a strong resemblance physically to his famous father, who saved a major league-record 652 games and helped lead the Yankees to five World Series titles. But Rivera III allowed 72 hits and opponents batted .269 against him, and he was considered by many to be a fringe prospect because of his inexperience on the mound. Yankees manager Joe Girardi spoke to Mariano Rivera recently and asked him for a scouting report on his son. "Mo wasnt sure if he got drafted what he would do," Girardi said before the Yankees played the Royals in Kansas City on Saturday night. "But I think its neat he got drafted by the Yankees and well see what happens." Rivera III has a fastball that sits in the low-90s and a terrific slider -- although his cutter isnt quite yet as devastating as his dads. He also wore the No. 6 at Iona, rather than his fathers familiar No. 42. "Well, his velocity, I mean, hes gotten bigger and stronger and its increased," Girardi said. "Mo didnt have much to say -- Mos always been a humble guy -- but he loves what hes doing." Rivera transferred to Iona from Quinnipiac and was originally an outfielder before redshirting and moving to the mound last year, when he pitched in 11 games for the Gaels. Len Dawson Jersey .

After edging out Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton on Friday, Rosberg finished six places and 1.2 seconds ahead of his title rival on Saturday morning at a damp Suzuka after Hamilton ran wide at the second Degner and did not improve his time.There had earlier been less than a tenth in it between Rosberg and Hamilton on the medium tyres, which is likely to be more representative of how they fare in qualifying at 7am BST. Rosbergs quickest time, 1:32.092, was three tenths of a second faster than Malaysia GP victor Daniel Ricciardo, with Sebastian Vettel a further 0.3s back in third.Whens the Japanese GP on Sky F1?Max Verstappen, who complained of traffic everywhere on his final flying lap, was fourth ahead of the second Ferrari of Kimi Raikkonen.Raikkonen had set the fastest time of all through the sweeping circuit sector, but encountered Jolyon Palmer approaching the first Degner and ran wide, before bemoaning the f****** Renault for spoiling his lap.But while annoying the Finn, Renault delivered a sudden step forward in performance on the timesheet with Palmer and Kevin Magnussen finishing promising eighth and ninth positions respectively.
