The last postseason game to feature the Mariners took place Oct. 22, 2001. Julio Rodríguez was nearly 10 months old; the first-generation iPod was a day away from being released; and the U.S. version of Survivor had just kicked off its third season. Needless to say, a lot has changed since then (with the exception of Survivor, which is still going strong).
The Blue Jays are making their fourth postseason appearance in eight years, but before that, they had not made the playoffs since winning back-to-back World Series titles in 1992 and ’93.
