Yankees closer Mariano Rivera notched the 600th save of his career on Tuesday night against the Mariners in Seattle.
New York won the game 3-2 at Safeco Field.
"[600] is nothing compared to the World Series titles," Rivera said.
The future Hall of Famer has 42 postseason saves to his credit.
"It's an incredible accomplishment," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "I don't know if we will ever see it again. That's how incredible an accomplishment it is. With what him and Trevor Hoffman have done is simply remarkable.
"This is a guy I believe is the best closer who has ever been in the game. I have had the fortune of catching him, coaching him and managing him, and it's been a treat."
