A Son Of The Game: Mariano Rivera III Tries To Make A Name For Himself In Baseball

Officially, the box score will say that there are 180 people gathered around the diamond at City Park in New Rochelle, N.Y. In fairness, 90 seems a much more reasonable estimate. It's Friday, March 28, and like almost every other day in the Northeast for the past four months, it's far from pleasant outside. A cold drizzle sporadically falls and a brisk wind blows in from left. It is perfectly understandable that there's only a sparse gathering here to watch this early-season, non-conference matchup between two Division I ballclubs, the Iona Gaels, and the visiting Seton Hall Pirates. This is not a day meant for baseball.
