The 01 Mariners set a win record, choked in the ALCS and never returned to the postseason

In 2001, the Seattle Mariners tied an MLB record by finishing the regular season with 116 wins. After a tough series with Cleveland, the historic Mariners were off to the ALCS to face the New York Yankees. But this was the end of the road for a team so full of hope and expectation. The Mariners lost to the Yankees 4 games to 1 and things only got worse from there. Video by Mike Imhoff, Jiazhen Zhang, Philip Pasternak, Mike Das Subscribe: Check out our full video catalog: go
