If we take only his hits in the mlb, extract an average from his entire tenure in the mlb for per season hits (which isn’t fair to him obviously, given that he declined late into his career and we’ll say he played in the 2019 season even though he appeared only up until the end of March) and then we say he’d hit at 50% of that average for those theoretical 7 years because he was still building up his skills or something, we can estimate a very conservative 3658 hits. That’s good for 4th all time for hits in the mlb. Ichiro is, if we stack everything possible against him, the fourth best hitter in mlb history.

Fact: When Ichiro was playing in Japan, the Japanese league played 30 fewer games per year than MLB. In fact, Ichiro has only hit over 200 once in his nine years in Japan, but he has hit over 200 in MLB ten times, including an insane record of 262. My opinion: If he had been in MLB since his professional debut, he would have surpassed Pete Rose in all time hit record with ease.

@thekeegster6278 2 жыл бұрын

Growing up as a Mariners fan living in Seattle, my baseball friends and I idolized Ichiro as a beacon of what baseball is about. We would imitate his stance at the plate, popping his sleeve and extending the bat outwards, we tried mimicking his swing... we did it all! I'm so thankful to grow up in a time where he ruled my beloved city with a humble and hard-working glove! I am so thankful for the memories he produced for me and I'm so thankful for what he did for the game of baseball in Seattle! Ich, thank you for everything!

If Ichiro had played in Ty Cobb's era, he would have hit .500. 5 tool players like him are so rare and so talented and they need to be honored in an era where guys get contracts for hitting 30 HR's and having .200 batting averages. And the scary thing is, he didn't debut in the MLB till he was 27. Imagine if he was Miguel Cabrera debuting at 19.

First ballot no doubt. There's no controversy there. But I think he'll get over 90% of the vote aswell. Absolutely outstanding career. The best overall (excluding power) hitter/outfielder the mlb has ever seen. Yeah Tony Gwinn could be argued to be a better hitter, but Ichiro was a much better fielder with an absolute CANON of an arm. Better hitter than Rose. Better player than Gwinn. The fact that he was able to even stand out like he did in the steroid era and be a dominant leadoff hitter for 10 straight years, that's unreal.

The fact that people think Ichiro is even the best player of his era kinda proves that people don't know shit about baseball

ichiro was terrific, but come on. mays, bonds, wagner, cobb, griffey, hornsby, a-rod, musial, dimaggio, ted williams...

How can you have an Ichiro Suzuki video without one throw? At the very least, the throw he made to nail Terrence Long at 3rd base of his rookie year, is a must

Ichiro and Matsui... my two favorite Japanese players.

Just over 262 hits ! This record will be exist for a long time in MLB .And continuous ten times of over 200 hits is also the record in MLB. Ichiro was the most greatest player in MLB. I never see like this player as Ichiro, and he enjoyed to play baseball all the time in his career, I'm sure.

Thank you Ichiro! Watching you play was an absolute honor. You played the game with such dedication and class. I will really miss seeing you on the field. Good luck to you buddy!

People tip toe around it; he is the best player the MLB has ever seen.

Ichiro has been so amazing to watch all these years, an incredible career for sure. Always get choked up hearing the legendary Dave Niehaus on the call as well.

Legend, easily one of the best hitters of the 2000’s, and honestly possibly of all time. Oh and he was pretty damn good in the field too.

The look Ichiro had on his face in the welcome back to Seattle press conference when the list of his own accomplishments ran long was everything that awes me about this man. Legend amongst legends.

Got to see Ichiro hit an inside the park home run at the 2007 all star game in San Francisco in person. Amazing player.

I had the pleasure of seeing him live when I was on vacation in St. Petersburg, Florida with some friends. It was a Rays vs. Mariners game. One of the greatest offense and defense baseball players of all time.

No matter what the stats are, he is a legend and his legacy will live on. Undoubtably one of the players to play the game especially after being able to stay healthy for so long. I also have to say that many people don’t count his professional career in Japan. Whether they like it or not, it should count. He has achieved more milestones than any other player.

Something I've always admired about Ichiro was his humility. I don't think I've ever seen him showboat or do anything unnecessary. All he ever did was play the game. And play the game quite well he did. It was an honor to watch that man. Grew up watching him as a kid I would model my batters stance after him.

One of the best to ever do it. Played with class and discipline rarely seen today in team sports. Never involved in any scandal or controversy on and off the field. Most importantly played the game how it should be played, with respect. Will never see another like him. I'm just glad I was able to see him play in my lifetime.
