Ichiro began his MLB career at the age of 27 and finished his career with 3089 hits. Here’s how many hits these players collected after their age-27 season: Derek Jeter - 2457 Tony Gwynn - 2371 Cal Ripken Jr. - 2100 Rod Carew - 2208 Miguel Cabrera - 1954 Ichiro is in a category of his own.
My favorite Ichiro moment is when he walked off Mariano Rivera on the first pitch of the AB in '09, for his first MLB walkoff homerun! And it was a 2-run come from behind homerun with 2 outs!
Genuinely amazed that I've never heard about that Ichirio throw to Olerud. Another masterpiece by my favorite musician that's also a part time baseball content creator
I can’t wait to see 51 retired in Seattle, especially given it wasn’t just worn by Ichiro but by Randy Johnson as well. It’ll look pretty damn good on that wall next to Jackie’s 42, the kid’s 24, and Edgar’s 11.
my favorite Ichiro moment was his running catch to rob Albert Pujols of extra bases and preserving Jamie Moyer's 1-2-3 inning in the 2003 All Star Game
quibble: the long bar in イチロー follows the direction of the writing. if it's top to bottom, the bar goes downwards. (something something, extends the prior vowel, blah blah nerd shit) good vid i enjoy watching ichiro appreciation
Damn the biggest insecurities I had while making this video was accidently butchering the Japanese language either vebally or in writing. Noted. Thank you for turning this into a learning moment and I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
I thought it was pretty clear it was Omar Vizquel, who was accused of sexually assaulting a bat boy with autism before reaching a settlement out of court.
I saw him play in Albuquerque a while back against the Rockies in an exhibition game and he was a total asshole. He would not sign autographs. Fug him.
The funny part about Ichiro's 2001 MVP is that he wasn't even the best player on the Mariners that year and was barely a top-5 guy in the AL West. But the story was too cool, so he got it.

How about Pete rose ?
@@hoppy23 3357 hits after turning 27.
@@jimharper2180 Pete rose also had like 5000 more at bats than Ichiro
Foolish and NMF dropped the same day at the same time, life is good
Literally just got done watching foolish that’s crazy
@@markgrimes945me too
Thanks for letting me know foolish dropped a new video. I’m subbed but didn’t get a notification
Watched them back to back. If Baseball Doesn't Exist also released a video today, that would've been epic!

mariano also only allowed five such walk-off home runs his entire career
Me too. I like that it sort of proves that he had that power and could utilize it when necessary.

hope to see a new vid from u soon beast
Ichiro is absolutely top 3 of my favorite players. He was a blast to watch and fun to listen to.
9:21 Immaculate Grid legend Mark McLemore
Talk about picking your spots. Ichiro knew exactly how the last AB was gonna end. Hats off for the vid always two thumbs up.
Wish I could give this comment 2 thumbs up, but a heart will have to do
Best bat to ball hitter of all time I’m so glad I got to watch ichiro play in his prime awesome vid man
Been a Mariners fan since the Dorktown doc, really got me into baseball. Now I’m a die hard Ichiro, KGJ, and Randy Johnson fan
Who isn’t. 3 amazing players that are way to easy to fall in love with. Baseball for the win brother
Couldn't get back to sleep so I'm smoking a joint, which made the intro to the video extra hilarious. Great work as always, keep it up!
I’ll take every opportunity I can to share bizarre commercials I find from the early 2000s
@@nomorefielders i full heartedly support this, it takes me back!
Bro the part with ichiro cursing was hilarious
As a Cleveland fan, I had the opportunity to see Ichiro numerous times live. He was alot of fun to watch. He was entertaining.
As a twins fan, I really need you guys to lose a game or two. Pretty please.
I wish the posting system stared earlier. so many great players could have came over MLB history would be completely different
Imagine if Sadaharu Oh got a chance to play overseas
Moyer using his change up and his slighter faster change up!!😂😂 see what you did there!
referencing A/V latency at 15:03 is a dead giveaway you’re a musician lol
Can’t believe this channel isn’t massive yet. Instant subscribe.
I see Ichiro i click. Its that simple
Awesome video on my favorite player ever! On one of my favorite channels on RUclips! Keep it up man
Thank you. Will do
Ichiro without a doubt is the greatest hitter to ever play baseball
Dude. Sick vid! Thank you vm for the content.
Thank you for watching and supporting!
Your writing is so good.
Thank you!
Ichiro is a top 5 OF of all time prolly top 3
Phenomenal video my man. It won't be long before you get to quit that day job (if you have one). Keep it up!
No More Fielders doing a Ichiro video? Automatic like!
another banger video as always
Thank you
“Helling for a shelling” that’s called bars
Fantastic video
American fans never really got to see the pendulum swing. Ichiro turned it into a more simple step during his last season in Japan.
Baseball bits and NMF God is good 🙏
Kamakazi, the Devine wind.
ANOTHER BANGER

Goated
If Ichiro is the hit king, then Saduharu Oh is the home run king
I’m ok with that
I’m a simple man. I hear Death Cab, I like
You can tell a lot about a person by asking this question so I’m gonna ask it: Favorite song or album by them?
@@nomorefielders Maybe an odd pick but I actually prefer Kintsugi most, but Transatlanticism and Plans are also some of the favorite albums ever
The straight street thing....wtf 🤣🤣
What did Dave know?
@@nomorefielders right lmao
@@nomorefielderslove your videos btw
nice vid
Thank you as always Witgiz
There was really a giant Viagra ad behind home plate 💀
We’ve really fallen off as a society
25:10 what player is he talking about? i can’t tell who it is
Omar Vizquel
@@nomorefielders Omar was a p***phile? I had no idea
The next great OF arm in Japan is Chusei Mannami.
Dudes insane

もしステロイドが一切無い世界線だったら、もっとイチローは超評価されていただろう…。
だってボンズやAロッドらのメジャーのスラッガー達がステロイドを使えなかったら流石にあれだけのHR数と長打率を記録出来ないから…。
lol, this video could have been like 3x longer
10 consecutive 200-hit seasons. That's it. No more need for baseball, people, let's pack it up.
my favorite Ichiro moment is that he had a lower wRC+ than Nick Markakis, out of Young Harris College
Just casually calling someone a pedo off hand really caught me off guard. Who are we talking about? The context provided did nothing to help.
I thought it was pretty clear it was Omar Vizquel, who was accused of sexually assaulting a bat boy with autism before reaching a settlement out of court.
@@nomorefielders ah. I am pretty out of the loop on that stuff. Thanks for the reply! Loved the video!
An handsomely paid 160 ops plus guy running on a Underpaid 126 ops guy with around 170 career games and almost 60 war difference between them.
I saw him play in Albuquerque a while back against the Rockies in an exhibition game and he was a total asshole. He would not sign autographs. Fug him.
The NPB saw what happened to the Negro Leagues and said "Nope! Not us!" and put something in place to protect themselves.
