The 'MLB Reliever of the Year winners' quiz

Earlier this summer, former Houston Astros closer Billy Wagner was immortalized with his induction to the Baseball Hall of Fame. Now, the retirement of his No. 13 in Houston, he'll always be part of Astros lore as well. 

Wagner pitched 16 Major League seasons, spending nine in Houston. As an Astro, he racked 694 strikeouts and 225 saves in 464 appearances.

"Having your number put up in a rafter with the greats of the organization probably sits up there as being a Hall of Famer because you’re representing a city, you’re representing your team that you played for,” Wagner told the Associated Press. 

Which brings us to today's quiz. How many of the American and National League Reliever of the Year (formerly knowns as the Rolaid Relief Award) since the 1995 MLB season?

Good luck!
