I want to express my appreciation for one of the greatest hitters in the history of baseball as he nears the end of his career. I'm tricking you into think I'm talking about Alex Rodriguez, but you may know me too well already to fall for that. Congrats to Ichiro Suzuki on his 3,000th career hit. Ichiro is an amazing baseball player, still productive at age 42, and is one of the classier players of our era. He also managed to rack up 1,278 hits in Japanese ball so his 4,278 hits professional hits is an all-time record. Hat's off to Ichiro, one of the all-time greats.
