Top 10 Ichiro Suzuki Moments

[@kurtbradwill]

This is not the top 10 Ichiro moments, it's 10 milestones in his MLB career.

[@rederik99]

Agreed. So many better video compilations out there

[@Skipmunk85]

yeah, nice vid but a bit misleading in the title

[@oldschoolmotorsickle]

Correct; great milestone moments, but individually, not especially great plays. And that music: Phew, nasty.

[@joshuadowdle9691]

Yeah, reading about them would be enough. No need for the boring video.

[@jonathantaone7363]

Agreed. Milestones vid. Bad music choice.

[@JG-fe1gx]

I remember his 1st year in Seattle. At the start of the season his autographed baseballs were selling for $35 at the Mariners team store. At the end of the season they were $300, if you could find one.

[@cooldrew11]

Ichiro is the person that got me into baseball. I remember as a young kid in Seattle, watching him go to the mound, not a single person was silent.

[@billknight5332]

The amount of respect he received in literally every ballpark is incredible.

[@defearl]

He was cheered even when his name was called in the lineup in the opposing team's ballpark. He never had any shady rumors/stories, so he was respected by everybody as a damn great player. I'm glad I was able to watch him and Jeter in the same team in person.

[@michaelburke5907]

Yeah, except for fucking Oakland, where they hurled racist invectives and actually spit on him from the stands. What assholes.

[@noevalleygiants]

Greatest hitter I've ever seen. Hard to think of anyone in baseball history who combined hitting, running, and defensive prowess in one package.

[@kkfn]

Not even close to gwynn

[@ReklawLah]

I don't think most casual baseball fans understand what a game-changing player Ichiro was. He was not great. He was so much more than that. It's hard to define.

[@jzizzle1]

The greatest hitter of his time.

[@Miko0219]

He changed the mindsets of his opponents when he’s at play

[@garretthigginbotham6122]

ReklawLah elite

[@Aih1616]

As a fun I don’t care what others think about him, he was just great and fun to watch

[@moistpeanut5986]

Everyone forgets the best Ichiro moment. WBC 2009 final Japan vs S.Korea. Top of the 10th, drives in two runs to give Japan the lead and finish it. I doubt there was a better moment for him considering how big the rivalry between them two is and being in the final.

[@gabos7892]

*Ichiro Suzuki will go down as one of the greatest MLB players ever. He is getting into the Hall.*

[@smokinjoe4684]

Allen Thomas they don't count international hits in Cooperstown numb-nuts. That's not why he's getting in.

[@chillitssid8311]

Allen Thomas are you really that stupid? He will go down as one of the all-around best baseball players in the history of the sport. If you know you anything about baseball then you should know that.

[@TheParrotEnthusiast]

Hearing Dave Niehaus's voice accompany Ichiro's accomplishments brings back a lot of emotions and fond memories. We will never forget him in Seattle. "It was something out of Star Wars out there!"

[@flamez2799]

Alan B he may have more hits

[@triplejplay1188]

He did start that young in the Japanese league, they combined the stats

[@jomama969]

TripleJPlay11 those shouldn’t count. Still like to think he’d be somewhere around 4,000 hits but is still a whole different ball game between Japan and MLB

[@triplejplay1188]

Kevin I know but it’s all Pro Baseball so why shouldn’t the stats combine

[@jomama969]

TripleJPlay11 minor league is pro ball too so might as well count that also right? There’s a reason a lot of has been guys go play in Korea or Japan when they’re on their decline

[@mochammadariskasyaifudin1502]

I love his humbleness, that was hard to be like that when u get the popularity and big name

[@AdrianFeliz1]

If I was to create a baseball dream team. Ichiro will be the first player to come to mind right away

[@EthansTv]

Adrian Feliz ichiro is a great player no doubt but he older now sadly there are better people but no one is a better person then him

[@joeschmo247]

EthansTv. Wait, apparently you missed his comment, it said if he was going to build a dream team, like Pete Rose, nope cant get him, he's like 70, Nolan Ryan, no, he is 70 as well, Mickey Mantle, nope, he is dead...its a dream team, hence the word dream

"The throw" should be on this list

yea, thew something out of star wars lol

[@kjmiller5023]

Jeff Riser I thought that would be on there too

[@plewis995]

Yeah, I'm surprised none of his laser throws made this Top 10 moments list.

[@s.f.7156]

Misleading title I don’t see any of his spectacular defensive plays. I would put his walkoff home run of Mariano on this list that just doesn’t happen. Players like Ortiz and Cabrera have done it ichiro is in that group of superstars.

[@locoken]

I think that's most of our feelings, for sure. Whoever made this clip obviously is not a Mariners fan. All of us know about "The Throw".

[@justjeff1851]

I think it’s just insane how he hit a single for #1000, a double for #2000, and a triple for #3000. #5Dchess

[@mrsir1872]

it was an absolute pleasure to watch this man play every single night growing up watching the mariners. looking back i didnt know how good i had it. i got to see this man magic every single night.

[@ghostmutt4265]

Gaaaaay

[@Tnakamura11]

He once said the reason why he didn't smile in games even when he did something great. He just didn't want opponents to think that he was happy about such small things like timely hits and sliding catches.

[@barrymaughan9030]

A fitting tribute to one of the all-time greats. A more humble and talented ambassador of the game never existed. And this excellent video does Ichiro proud.

[@gunnynow]

Without a doubt the most overlooked and underrated superstars in all of MLB history.

[@justinmix143]

Ichiro is right there w/ Cobb, Rose & Gwynn in the conversation for absolute best contact hitter to ever lace up a pair of spikes. He was so good it was almost....unnatural. And he did everything clean, with the utmost grace & humility

[@thegracienetwork7847]

It was a privilege to see him in action many times at the Oakland Coliseum. Wonderful player.

[@The_Mister]

I was at the game when he broke George Sissler’s record. Pretty amazing moment.

[@franktorres3300]

Ichiro Suzuki, vino de otro Planeta, que maravilla de pelotero, su dedicación, determinación y disciplina y seriedad lo convierten en un ejemplo para los jóvenes del mundo, grande por siempre.

[@M.S.Fitness]

The real definition of a Beast from​ the East.

[@dh3279]

What? Not a single defensive gem among his top 10 moments? Ichiro is one of the greatest defensive players in history!!

[@ラウヌラ]

Ichiro is my hero for ever…

[@cutieara2983]

i love ichiro hes the reason why i watch MLB

[@PlanetEarth3141]

The first time I saw Ichiro was on TV as a new player in Seattle for the Mariners in his first game. I wasn't a big baseball fan, but I'd seen enough to know greatness when I saw it. In my mind Ichiro is the best overall baseball player in history and he has the records to prove it.

I am Japanese and I love Ichiro. Want to here why his number is 51? 51 in japanese is go ichi, which sounds like Go Ichiro!

[@Waiin3]

51 is goju ichi not go ichi lmao

[@Kanzato]

@@Waiin3 maybe he meant 5&1. Well on clip there's supporter that also write 5|1 as Go Ichi ro so might not wrong.

[@Miko0219]

Same logic in the anime major wherein goro shigeno chose number 56 since its go and roku

[@Xavier_Coogat_the_Mambo_King]

What Reymar thinks: "people will think I'm smart because I corrected him on Japanese" What we really think: "what an idiot, he didn't understand he was talking about 5-1, not 51"

[@user-vf9ei8kc4d]

Why 51? Because Suzuki Ichiro ≒ 5uzuki 1chiro. S.I ≒ 5.1 So 51.

[@marccukierwar9738]

He is truly the greatest pure hitter the game has ever seen..if he would have started at 20 there is no reason he could've ended up with over 5000 hits..konichiwa

Can't quibble too much about the plays listed, but there are issues with the order. His three biggest offensive accomplishments are: the total number of hits in Japan and the US; having over 200 hits in 10 consecutive MLB seasons; and setting the MLB record for hits in one season.

[@handsomepetevideos]

agree - while “cool” an inside the park home run in an allstar game isn’t that big a deal.

As far as contact hitters go, records aside, Ichiro was the 2nd best contact hitter behind Rose. Growing up though, he was my favorite. Him and Griffey are the reason I taught myself to bat left handed
