Read this at CBSSports.com and surprised that Ichiro wasn't the fast to reach 2,000 hits.
Suzuki had two hits to move within four of 2,000 for his career and is likely to become the second-fastest
player in history to reach that plateau. Al Simmons did it in 1,390 games while Suzuki has played in 1,391.
George Sisler is currently second on the list in 1,414 games.
I wonder if Ichiro knew about this record if so that would suck to miss breaking it by a couple of days.
Ichiro is still one heck of a ball player and fun to watch it's just to bad he plays on so so team. I hope
he can stick around and stay health enough to reach 3,000 hits.
