Everyone around me is a total stranger. Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger. That’s why I’m turning Japanese, I think I’m turning Japanese I really think so. -The Vapors
Public Service Announcement: Ok, here we go! If you don’t think Ichiro Suzuki is a first ballot Hall of Famer, you better think again. Last night, Ichiro went 2-for-4 in the Mariners’ 8-5 loss at Yankee Stadium. Big deal? So what? I’ll tell you so what. I’ll tell you Ichiro finished the month of June with 44 hits in 108 at-bats (.407). I’ll tell you it was the 20th time that Ichiro recorded more than 40 hits in a calendar month. Furthermore, I’ll tell you that’s the highest total in more than a half-century. Yowza! The last player with at least 20 months of more than 40 hits was Stan the man Musial (22). The last American League player to do so was the Iron Horse. That’s right, Lou Gehrig (21) . Stan the Man, the Iron Horse and Ichiro: Come and dance on on our floor. Take a step that is new. We’ve a loveable space that needs your face, three’s company too. And mighty fine company it is.
Peace out homies. Six two and Even!
