The Media in Japan and some in America are trying to say that Ichiro is just 2 hits short of
Pete's record!
"Gumby Bats?"
- Pete had 4256 hits in MLB during his 24 year career
- Ichiro has had 2974 hits in his 15 year MLB career
But the Japanese Media & some American Media are saying that Ichiro's
1278 hits in the Japanese League should be included.
My response...?...I'm not allowed to say...PC & all.

Ichiro is a great player. Had his entire pro career been in MLB he would have been HOF material HOWSOMEVER, transferring his Nippon baggers to 'Merica just ain't Kosher. What's next, toss a little sushi and wasabi in an apple pie and tell us it's a Tastykake? No way he faced HOF pitchers and fielders everyday in the Land of the Rising Sun. It's PC to be inclusive of foreigners theses days but it's also a money grab to suck in another million visitors to Cooperstown snapping pics with their Nikons. Konichiwa!
