Ichiro Suzuki is a hitting machine.
From his younger days as a star with the Orix BlueWave to his record-shattering time with the Seattle Mariners, the iconic outfielder has racked up hits at an amazing rate.
On Sunday, Ichiro collected the 2,000th hit of his Major League Baseball career, a leadoff double against the host Oakland Athletics. In doing so, the All-Star right fielder reached that milestone in 1,402 games, achieving the feat at a rate faster than anyone except one other player in the history of the game: Al Simmons, who needed 1,390 games to do it in the 1920s and '30s.
