((HT: MLB Network/YES))
There is one of the greatest hitters in this lifetime on display in New York City...
It's Ichiro Suzuki... or, just Ichiro...
Like Madonna, Arnie, or any one of those single-named people... he's reached that status- and rightfully so...
He has now reached 4,000 hits... and the answer to the trivia question is- an RA Dickey knuckleball...
Ichiro had 1,278 hits in Japan before coming over to the continent a dozen years ago. He passed Lou Gehrig on the MLB career hits list Major League Baseball's with his 2,722nd hit that gave him 4,000 on the nose.
The question to you Dear Reader is: Is Ichiro a Hall of Famer...???
The HQ thinks so... and he's only two seasons behind Peter Edward Rose for the all-time hit lead...

Burglar steals Ichiro jersey's from Mariner's store
((ht: seattletimes))
Haha! Sort of.
A burglar in Seattle is being questioned today for his lack of judgement. And no, it has nothing to do with attempting a robbery.
Rather, it's why he took the time to break into the Seattle Mariner's team store to steal a bunch of Ichiro jersey's.
Mostly because the jersey's were 50% off and Ichiro doesn't play for Seattle anymore.
But, hey, maybe a discount was enough. The $240 jersey's at half off would still fetch a decent price we suppose.
Either way, the guy was caught on video breaking into the store. And Seattle Police are apparently hot on his trail.

Well, it sucks that the guy was so desperate that he felt the need to commit a crime. But it is kind of funny that he supposedly scouted, then stole those particular jersey's only.
We're guessing Police won't have too hard a time trying to track him down, those aren't something that you can easily turn around and sell without drawing at least a little attention.
For what it's worth, here's video of the guy breaking in and then leaving:
