SARATOGA SPRINGS -- The Yankees long time closer won't be on the mound anytime soon, but he will be serving up some entertainment Thursday night in Saratoga.

Rivera has been nursing a torn ACL that he suffered back in May. Tonight he will be hosting a fundraiser to benefit his charity, The Mariano River Foundation.

The evening will consist of a dinner and photo-op. It's being held at Siro's Trattoria at the Lodge in Saratoga Springs.

If you would like to buy tickets to meet the legendary pitcher, it might cost you more than a ticket to the ball park. Tickets are going for $500.
