Ichiro's Run of .300 Seasons and His MLB Standing
A look back at Ichiro's 10 consecutive .300/200-hit seasons and his historical standing.
Ichiro hit .300+ with 200+ hits in 10 straight seasons from 2001 to 2010 — the first player in MLB history to do so.
His 262-hit single-season record (2004) still stands today.
He also won 10 Gold Gloves, earning elite status on defense to go with his bat and legs.
His 3,089 MLB hits and 4,367 career hits (combined NPB+MLB) cement his historical place as an all-time great.
