Part 5/8:

The Mariners had a historic season in 2001, tying the MLB record for wins with 116. However, the team’s early playoff exit left fans questioning their magical run. Despite this setback, Ichiro proved to be a clutch player; his stellar playoff performances at the plate demonstrated his readiness for the big stage, and he continued to build on his success in subsequent seasons.

The following years saw Ichiro as the undisputed face of the Mariners, yet the team struggled to reach the playoffs. He showed resilience by contributing to the national team, leading Japan in the 2006 World Baseball Classic and ultimately bringing home the championship.
