In this episode Mad Dog is digging up the story of one of the greatest baseball teams to never win the world series, the 2001 Seattle Mariners. Led by rookie Ichiro Suzuki's MVP season, the Mariners would tie the major league record for wins with 116 victories. Their roster consisted of eight All-Stars including John Olerdu, Brett Boone, Edgar Martinez and Freddy Garcia. Their domination throughout the regular season was evident but when the playoffs came around their skills would be tested when they found themselves facing off against Derek Jeter and the New Yankees dynasty. Mariners manger Lou Piniella (28:27) joins Mad Dog to give more detail and insight into his 2001 squad.
