Ichiro?

**Sensei Of Mattitude** · 09-28-2004, 01:54 AM

I've heard that in some game situtations, Ichiro should have gone for a double or drive a ball into the gap for an extra base hit but he put down a drag bunt and tried to just add on to his record.

In my opinion, I think that Ichiro's record should have an * next to his record because George Sisler had 257 hits in about 10-15 games less than the current schelude (I forget the actual number of games during the 1920 season). So for Ichiro to ACTUALLY BREAK the record, he would have had to do it about 2 or 3 weeks ago. George Sisler has a better H/AB percentage than Ichiro no matter what.
