COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. -- Rod Carew will gladly welcome Ichiro Suzuki into the Hall of Fame fraternity when the time comes. But baseball has only one career hit leader in Carews estimation, and his name is Pete Rose.Suzuki, 42, has 2,996 hits in the major leagues and is likely to become the 30th member of the 3,000 club during the Miami Marlins current homestand. Between Suzukis tenure with the Orix Blue Wave in Japan and his production over 16 seasons with the Seattle Mariners, New York Yankees and the Marlins, he has 4,274 hits compared to the 4,256 that Rose accumulated over 24 MLB seasons.I have tremendous respect for Ichiro, Carew said. For a young man to come here in such a short time and get 3,000 hits, thats saying something. But you cant take it away from Pete. Pete is the Hit King here in this country, and you cant add the two [leagues] together to make Ichiro the best hitter there was. Thats the way I feel.Carew, 70, won seven batting titles and made 18 All-Star teams over 19 seasons with the Minnesota Twins and California Angels. Hes a .328 career hitter who ranks 24th in MLB history with 3,053 hits, and he made it to Cooperstown on his first try in 1991. During the recent All-Star Game in San Diego, MLB named the American League batting championship for Carew and dedicated the National League award to Tony Gwynn, who captured eight career batting titles.Even though Carew regards Rose as baseballs Hit King, he thinks Suzuki has built a strong enough case to merit induction to Cooperstown once he becomes eligible for the shrine.Ichiros the same type of hitter I was, Carew said. We used the whole field to hit. He could run, so he beat out infield hits. He bunted. He took advantage of the pitchers when they threw him a pitch. You cant take it away from him. Hes done a heck of a job since hes been here.Carew, who nearly died from a massive heart attack while playing golf in September, appeared at a news conference in Cooperstown on Saturday in conjunction with the Heart of 29 campaign to promote heart health. He wears a portable machine called a left ventricular assist device to keep his heart pumping, and said he will eventually need a heart transplant.Im looking for a 21-year-old heart, Carew said. I want to come back and hit some line drives. Cheap Air Jordan 11 Free Shipping . 10 VCU 85-67 on Thursday night at the Puerto Rico Tip-Off.
