2001-Oct-05 • TEX/SEA • Texas Rangers vs Seattle Mariners - 115th Win - Radio Broadcast / On October 5th, 2001, the Texas Rangers faced off against the Seattle Mariners in what would become a significant game in Major League Baseball history. The Mariners were on the cusp of an unprecedented achievement, aiming for their 115th win of the season, a feat that would tie them with the 1906 Chicago Cubs for the most regular-season wins in MLB history. The Texas Rangers, though not in contention for the playoffs, were eager to play the spoiler and deny the Mariners this record-setting victory. The crisp, autumnal air of October baseball was heavy with anticipation as the game unfolded, a tension that was only heightened by the recent events of 9/11, which had led to a temporary suspension of the season and had imbued the game with a greater sense of unity and national pride.
