Ichiro Suzuki is Japan's greatest baseball player. The future Hall of Famer has broken record after record between the NPB and MLB, but there is an underlying secret. Although he is known as a singles hitter, Ichiro Suzuki home runs could be much more common if he took a different approach. In this episode of Baseball Bits, Foolish Baseball wants to talk about Ichiro power! The question is simple. Is Ichiro Suzuki secretly a great home run hitter? How many home runs could he have hit if he changed his approach? We'll answer that question and much more. We'll explore the Ichiro Mariners times all the way through the Ichiro Marlins era. With a 27 year body of work, there's no shortage of stats, events, and anecdotes to choose from. You'll even get to see Ichiro NPB (Nippon Pro Baseball) footage, specifically with the Orix Blue Wave. Don't worry, there's also plenty of comparison to Shohei Ohtani, who makes his Baseball Bits debut. We conclude with a clip of Ichiro's home run against Mariano Rivera.
