Sweet 116: The 2001 Seattle Mariners History Making Season (2001)
Excellent, all-around documentary.
12 February 2007
This movie is great. It is well put together and it shows that even with players a lot of fans have not heard of you can have one of the best teams ever in that sport. The Seattle Mariners proved that time and time again in 2001. At the start of the season most "experts" predicted them only winning about 80 games or so and finishing in second or third place. This was mainly because they only had 3 or so players that almost every fan in the U.S. knew about at the time (Edgar Martinez, Jay Buhner and John Olerud). Using this relatively no-name roster they tied the major league record for wins in a season with an amazing record of 116-46. This movie captures this milestone season perfectly 10/10.
