Tennis closer Andy Roddick compared to Mo...
(3/9/09): "With his final swing of the racquet, Andy Roddick sent the ball soaring into the BJCC Arena stratosphere, or at least the upper reaches of the upper deck.
- And like so many other shots Roddick hit in Sunday's Davis Cup first-round finals, Swizerland's Stanislas Wawrinka had no chance of returning that one, either....
The 26-year-old has become the most dominant closer in U.S. Davis Cup history, running his record to 11-0 in Davis Cup-clinching matches
- and prompting comparisons to Mariano Rivera, the New York Yankees’ closer
- who is considered one of the best of all time."...'Roddick Shows Why he's US Team's Closer,' Birmingham (AL) News
