in their careers.

Eight of those are "modern" players who have played since 1980 (they didn't necessarily get 200 hits in a season after 1980, but they retired after 1980). Can you name them? Bonus points for 8 of the 11 "older" players.

Second easy one. Derek Jeter

Wade Boggs, probably.

Gotta be a couple Rockies in there. Todd Helton and Larry Walker?

I failed on both.

There’s absolutely no way I’d ever guess Michael Young. Crazy

Perennially overlooked, even in his prime. Really only appreciated by Rangers

Weird guess because he’s a bit of a journeyman, but Juan Pierre?

Last guess - was it Sisler who had the single season hit record before Ichiro? I’ll guess him.

No, especially not in the era of advanced stats. Young was a really good hitter

califcougar

Wrong about Young. He was an amazing hitter and such a good fielder that they

BigD Coug

7/12/20 8:34pm

He’s not close to a HOFer, career .787 OPS is not great; his advanced defensive

agreed-ish on Votto

Riseandshout81

7/13/20 11:09am

If Votto has 3 more good years, he could have similar numbers to Larry Walker

One quick thing I forgot to mention about Ichiro. He actually did all 10 of his

mannheimadler

7/12/20 8:10pm

He didn’t get to the US majors until he was 28.

Stalwartbob

7/13/20 2:58pm

Yeah, I think he could have broken Rose's record if he had made it to the majors

mannheimadler

7/13/20 2:59pm

Ichiro played 9 yrs in Japan. Hit .353 BA, with 1278 hits. 130 game seasons.
