Yesterday Gagne pitched the second 2-inning save of his career. My theory on this is: The streak is over, but he's still not seen by many people to be the best closer in the game. The difference between he and Mariano Rivera is the fact that Mariano often is called on to shut teams down for 2 or 3 innings, depending on the severity of the situation. Gagne is now gonna start creeping in on that reputation and if he's successful, we'll get all of those diehard New York fans to BOW DOWN.
