Ichiro Reaches 200 Hits Again

Ichiro Reaches 200 Hits Again
With a 4-for-5 evening, the superb Ichiro has broken the 200 hit threshold again, his 5th season in a row.

Willie Keeler (1894-1901) holds the record with eight straight 200-hit seasons, while Wade Boggs (1983-89) had seven. Suzuki joined Chuck Klein (1929-33), Al Simmons (1929-33) and Charlie Gehringer (1933-37) at five in a row. All of the above (less Ichiro, of course) are members of the National Baseball Hall of Fame.
About

This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.

It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
