Default Will Ichiro get the * from Maris?
Posted By: jay behrens

Someone on one of the SABR lists brought up an interesting point, Bonds is on a pace to get close to Ruth's mark of reaching first the most times in a season. At his current pace, Bonds is going to come up 5-10 short of Ruth's record 373 times getting on base in a season.

Hits are impressive, but Ichiro doesn't even register on the all-time list in this catagory. Curently; Bonds 317 Ichiro 268.

I like to sit outside, drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.
