Ichiro who is in his 10th year in the Majors got his 200th hit of the season which makes him the second player to have 200 hits in his first 10 seasons in the bigs. Ichiro's second hit of the day in the fifth inning against Blue Jays starter Shawn Hill with Josh Wilson at first with one out.
This is a big consolation prize for Mariners fans who thought they had a team that could contend for its only their fourth AL West title in there 33 years of playing baseball. Although I will say the Mariners have had bad luck. Mark Lowe injured then traded in the Cliff Lee deal in early July.
Although when the season comes to an end on the first Sunday in October the 2010 season of the Mariners will go in the books as underachievers for the most part but this event will for sure go down as the Mariners Top 20 greatest moments in team history.
