Ichiro Suzuki Poised for Historic Hall of Fame Induction

The legendary hitter could become the first position player unanimously elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

Ichiro Suzuki, a 10-time All-Star and 2001 MVP, is expected to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility.
Suzuki's career includes 3,089 MLB hits, a .311 batting average, and a record-breaking 262-hit season in 2004.
Before joining MLB, Suzuki dominated Japan's NPB with a .353 batting average over nine seasons, making him a global baseball icon.
He is the first Japanese-born position player in MLB history, paving the way for future stars like Shohei Ohtani.
With unanimous support on public ballots so far, Suzuki could join Mariano Rivera as the only players unanimously elected to the Hall of Fame.
