Mariano Rivera plays pizza man during farewell tour

The Yankees closer is calling it quits at the end of this year, and he’s surprising people in MLB cities along the way. This time, he’s delivering some ‘zza.

Oakland A’s Front Office

While it’s easy to suggest Mariano Rivera is thanking workers in various MLB cities he’s grown to know and appreciate in his long career as Yankees closer, maybe he’s just looking for his next job in case his 401k takes a hit.

This time he delivered some pizza to an A’s employee Julie Vasconcellos, and he looked like a natural at it.

The 43-year-old Rivera says this is the most creative display of appreciation yet during his farewell tour before he heads into retirement after his 19th major league season.
He’s doing similar things in each city, saying, “Oh, I love it.”

So when Rivera shows up at your local FedEx Kinko’s and starts helping you print your vinyl banner, don’t be alarmed.
