It was announced on Tuesday evening that Ichiro Suzuki was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame and will be one of three players enshrined forever in

After being elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame on Tuesday afternoon, Seattle Mariners legend Ichiro Suzuki got a surprise call from fellow Hall of Famer Ken Griffey Jr.

If that remains the case when the final results are released by the Baseball Writers Association of America on Tuesday, Ichiro will be the first Japanese-born player in the Hall of Fame and just the second player ever to be unanimously elected to Cooperstown.

Seattle Mariners legend Ichiro Suzuki is headed to the Hall of Fame after receiving 99.7 percent of votes from eligible Baseball Writers’ Association of America members.

Mariano Rivera is a Yankees legend, but who's the woman who's been by his side all these years? Meet Clara Rivera.

It won't be official until the voting is released, but Ichiro Suzuki is heading to the Hall of Fame. The Japanese outfielder is expected to be one of the names inducted into Cooperstown in the 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame class.

Ichiro Suzuki came up one vote shy of becoming the second player to be unanimously voted into the Hall of Fame, prompting a social media uproar.

Ichiro will join Ken Griffey Jr., Edgar Martinez and Jackie Robinson as the only jerseys retired by the Mariners.

Ichiro Suzuki was among the few Japanese players who transitioned well from Japan's Nippon Professional Baseball to Major League Baseball.

While Mariano Rivera remains the only Hall of Famer to be voted in unanimously by the Baseball Writers Association of America, Ichiro joins Derek Jeter (2020) as inductees who were one vote shy of joining the longtime New York Yankees closer in that elite category.

Ichiro had more hits than anyone, while serving as a powerful precedent for Japanese players. That overshadows whether his Hall of Fame election was unanimous.

Ichiro Suzuki missed out on an unanimous Baseball Hall of Fame selection by one vote. So, how many players have ever got a perfect vote?
