What! Is this about Ichiro? If so, please give details and please tell me he is now playing for Oakland. Or you talking about another Suzuki. This guy is the best contact hitter in the game, and now he is learning to hit a home run when needed. He has walk off home runs more often than a home run at any other at bat. At least used to. My all time favorited player is holder of this title, hopefully forever - Rickey Henderson. Hope my 1989 World Series Baseball signed by the Oakland team that season is still in possesion by my family.
