    Ichiro also holds the record for playing the game with the most class.

      You'd be surprised: It was said he learned spanish just to talk trash at Latino players.
      Don't get me wrong.. Ichiro is the greatest of all time. Dont @ me.

  • @jwyh4162
    @jwyh4162 Před 7 lety +295

    In a league where we sometimes get too enamored with homerun hitters, we need to appreciate guys who can do everything else at a superb level. That was Ichiro.

  • @J_Ris28
    @J_Ris28 Před 7 lety +87

    5:00 People don't even realize that Ichiro could've hit a lot more home runs than he did. He stayed with his singles, get on base approach and it that's what baseball really is about but when his team needed a home run he would change his approach and swing to hit it out. Like he did against Mariano, two outs down one run with a man on base he hit the first pitch out and ended the game. Give this man his respect

    • @SamuelJ888
      @SamuelJ888 Před rokem +7

      I've always felt the same thing. He just had to make an adjustment on his launch angle. But it meant more for him to get on base consistently than it meant for him to hit dingers.

    @poet253rd Před 7 lety +195

    As a long time Mariners fan, I'm happy to see Ichiro still playing well. He came to Seattle and instantly impacted not only our team but the entire MLB. Guaranteed first ballot hall of famer. Can't wait to see 3,000 hits in the MLB this season.

    • @Terrell206
      @Terrell206 Před 7 lety +15

    • @megaphor
      @megaphor Před 7 lety +4

      I don't really follow baseball but I always took note of Ichiro because of things like "people don't run on him" or that "he has the power to just go for home runes but decides to just concentrate on getting base hits" stuff like that. So why did he part with Seattle? I always thought everyone loved him there and that he could have been like an MLB one teamer.

    • @Terrell206
      @Terrell206 Před 7 lety +1

      megaphor Im pretty sure we traded him

  • @larrytipton2868

  • @miltiaspogfrog9684
    @miltiaspogfrog9684 Před rokem +7

    He is honestly one of my favorite players of all time. The fact he was so good for such a long time is incredible, and the fact that he played kindly with only getting thrown out once is amazing. Just an amazing person in general.

  • @xmypantsx

  • @marchendrickson2382
    @marchendrickson2382 Před 6 lety +9

    This compilation left out really the best of Ichiro...the best was the pair of signed cleats he sent to the young girl in Seattle that kept up the Ichi-meter on his side of the outfield with a note thanking her. He is the definition of pure class and honor. 1st ballot hall of famer without question or doubt

    • @cindyinnew
      @cindyinnew Před 2 lety +7

      The only time he ever threw a bat in anger was followed with a letter to the makers of the bat apologizing for misusing the bat and not respecting the hard work of the people who made it. Who else does that? He’s one in a million

  • @shnoogums1
    @shnoogums1 Před 7 lety +21

    • @yujinumata4430

    Sad day when the Yankees let Ichiro go. One of the classiest and most talented players to ever grace the Majors. Hats off!

  • @fewpoundcory
    @fewpoundcory Před 7 lety +72

    Most people dont realize the Japanese season is considerably shorter (most games Ichiro played over there in 1 season was 135). Even if his average was slightly lower over here, he would have still most likely gotten the same amount of hits per season with the extra 27 games, although his .350 average as a rookie for the mariners really shows how much harder it was over here for him. ICHIRO>ROSE (and i'm from Cincinnati)

    • @timharper4246
      @timharper4246 Před 13 dny

      Agreed. Cincinnati guy here, as well. He's an amazing representative for the sport, as well

  • @MrQball619
    @MrQball619 Před 7 lety +20

    I'm a big Ichiro fan. People making a big deal about if his MLB hits and Japan hits should be combined. Take it for what it is, a great accomplishment. My opinion, 2 separate leagues so 2 separate hit totals. But nobody can take away his 3,000 hits in the MLB where he began his career at 27!

  • @caseystanzione2279

  • @SportsAndHorrorFanatic

    The only player in MLB history to collect 3,000 hits, swipe 500 bags and claim 10 GG. And to think he didn’t even join MLB until he was 27.

  • @superadam2112
    @superadam2112 Před 7 lety +10

    And now he's only a couple more away from 3,000 in the MLB. Ichiro is a once in a lifetime player and will solidify himself as among baseball's greatest in Cooperstown.

  • @davidfkennedy7816
    @davidfkennedy7816 Před 3 lety +4

    when you watch ichiro swing, he isnt going for the fences or anything, it's like he calculates exactly where the fielders are and he puts the ball exactly where they arent. He's going for the tactically best possible place to put the ball, and he knows how to hold and swing the bat for it to get there.

    • @cindyinnew
      @cindyinnew Před 2 lety +3

      And he manages to watch the ball even as he’s hitting it. His discipline and concentration is absolutely awe inspiring

    He once threw his bat after a bad hit and it hurt him so much that he sent an apology letter to the company and promised never to do that again...so after every hit from then on, he gently laid his bat to the ground.

    My 2 most memorable Ichiro moments are when he dances around the catcher at home plate to avoid the tag (search "Ichiro ninja", he did that twice actually), and his game-winning hit in the 10th inning of the WBC 2009 finals against great rival Korea. Here's what went through his mind during that at bat: blog.japaneseballplayers.com/2011/03/ichiro-and-his-thoughts-as-he-entered-his-at-bat-at-2009-wbc-final/
