For the first time in his 11 seasons in the Major Leagues, Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki has fallen short of 200 hits.
To me, 200 hits in a season is a terrific accomplishment. To do it in the first 10-year of a career is mind-numbing. Ichiro is the only player to accomplish that feat.
But alas, all good things must end and Ichiro's consecutive 200-hit season streak officially ended last night. He went 0-3 to finish the season with a career low .272 average and only 184 hits.
He'll be 38 next month and you have to wonder if he has any more 200-hit seasons left in his magical bat.
