To honor New York Yankees closer Mariano Rivera as he plays in his final season in the major leagues, Delta Air Lines dedicated a 757 aircraft in his name during a ceremony held this week at JFK Airport.

Delta Air Lines is the official airline of the New York Yankees and has only dedicated a small handful of their airplanes. Manager Joe Girardi attended the ceremony with Rivera.
