ESPN MLB Insider Calls For Seattle Mariners Legend Ichiro Suzuki to Be Unanimous Hall of Famer
Seattle Mariners fans have something to look forward to this offseason as it’s a foregone conclusion that franchise legend Ichiro Suzuki will earn election into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. That announcement will come in January and the induction ceremony will take place next July in Cooperstown.
The question isn’t if Ichiro will get in to the Hall of Fame, the question is by how much? And according to ESPN MLB Insider Buster Olney, it should be a unanimous decision:
Ichiro should be a unanimous HOF selection. Here’s part of his resume: Ichiro should be a unanimous HOF selection. Here’s part of his resume: — Buster Olney (@Buster_ESPN) November 13, 2024

To this point, former New York Yankees closer Mariano Rivera is the only unanimous Hall of Fame selection in baseball history.
One of the best pure hitters in baseball history, Ichiro amassed 3,089 hits in his United States career. In addition to that lifetime .311 average, he also stole 509 career bases.
Ichiro won a laundry list of awards including Rookie of the Year (2001) and MVP (2001). He was a two-time batting champion, a 10-time Gold Glover, a 10-time All-Star and a three-time Silver Slugger.
He played parts of 14 seasons with the Mariners, three with the Yankees and three with the Marlins. Remarkably durable throughout his career, he never played less than 136 games in a season until age 44.
He’s been working with the Mariners since retirement and is already part of the team’s Hall of Fame. He’ll be the third Mariners-specific Hall of Famer, joining Ken Griffey Jr. and Edgar Martinez.

SEATTLE, Wash. – There were at least 200 protesters that showed up in Seattle Wednesday night in what speakers called an “emergency protest” in response to the fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis Wednesday.
“We want justice, we want peace, we want justice, we want peace, we want ICE off our streets, we want ice off our streets…” they chanted.

After listening to speakers, protesters went on the march and circled the blocks near the Federal Building in Seattle.
Though the protest was organized on short notice, some protesters say they were compelled to come out Wednesday with urgency because they felt what happened in Minneapolis was a bridge too far.
What they’re saying:
“ICE has gone too far. We’ve felt this, we’ve known this for a long time. There have been people protesting,” said Raleigh Watts, protesting the ICE shooting. “We’ve been hearing the news. Today I came out because when I heard, it was my sign that a line has been crossed that I can’t stand anymore. So, I’ve come to say, ‘No ICE, you’ve gone too far’.”
“A lot of people out here are really, really angry, confused and sad, but I think we have what it takes to fight back,” said Sophia Van Beek, protesting the MN ICE shooting. “I’m certain there are going to be actions.”
Sophia says in order to make a difference, protesters need to create an actionable political program.

Members of law enforcement were in the area and helped to block off the streets during the protest and march. There were no clashes during this protest and it wrapped up at around 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday.
“I am proud of all the hundreds of people who have turned out tonight at the federal building in Seattle. I’m proud of the people who are in Tacoma that are protesting at the ice detention center and in Minneapolis and in cities across the country. This is not okay for ICE to kill somebody,” said Watts.
What’s next:
Some people at Wednesday’s demonstration said they were planning to organize more protests in the coming weeks.

SEATTLE — Seattle activists are rallying to demand justice on Wednesday following the fatal shooting of a woman by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent in Minneapolis.
The Seattle Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression (SAARPR) and Seattle Against War (SAW) have organized an emergency press conference to protest the incident.
The event is scheduled for 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Henry M. Jackson Federal Building in Seattle.
Woman killed by ICE officers in Minneapolis; Mayor tells ICE to ‘get the f***’ out
The shooting occurred on Wednesday morning at the corner of 34th and Portland Avenue in Minneapolis. According to preliminary information, Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara said, the woman was sitting in her vehicle blocking the roadway when a federal law enforcement officer approached on foot. When the vehicle began to drive away, at least two shots were fired, and the vehicle crashed on the side of the road.
In response, emergency protests have erupted in Minneapolis and are expected to continue through Jan. 11.
The Seattle groups are joining the Legalization 4 All Network in calling for an immediate end to ICE raids and mass deportations.
They are also demanding justice and accountability for the woman who was killed, including the release of the name of the ICE agent involved and the names of all agents participating in such operations.
