Pete Rose no longer hit king

[navamind]

it's asinine to call Ichiro the "hit king", and I hate Rose.

It's not like "Hit King" is an official title or anything though. I don't really see what the big deal is regarding who uses it for whom.

 

[handicappers]

Yeah, it does't.

uh, yes it does.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I'm gonna call Ichiro the Hit King just because Rose is a twat.

 

[HammerDown]

Why, in the sweet fuck, would we count hits he got in Japan?

We wouldn't.

 

[HammerDown]

I'm counting my hits in Ken Griffey JR baseball for Nintendo

Me too.

I'm expecting a 30-for-30 episode.

 

[redseat]

Me too.

I'm expecting a 30-for-30 episode.

I know, I'm writing to ESPN as we speak

 

[The Q]

uh, yes it does.

So Sadaharu Oh is your HR king?

didn't pete rose trademark that once? or he probably should

 

[Manster7588]

Would my little league numbers count too? I might have a case that I am the hits king

You gave up that many hits in LL?

 

[Manster7588]

Petes right here, Japanese BB is not MLB.

 

[Old Lion]

You gave up that many hits in LL?

Nope, but I had several records. One which will never be broken because they limit the number of pitches kids can throw nowadays. I threw 181 pitches in 1 game back in the mid seventies.

Lets see any of todays prissy bitches do that.

Damn. 181 pitches in one game? Must of been like the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade around the bases.

 

[Old Lion]

Damn. 181 pitches in one game? Must of been like the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade around the bases.

Haha, was all over the place. Walked a whole lot of batters. Hit the same batter with a pitch all 4 times at bat (he went for x-rays after the game). We still won though. Pretty wild.

[tducey]

Yeah, Rose is still the hit king for MLB. Ichiro had great #'s in Japan but those shouldn't count.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

It worked for me.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Yeah, Rose is still the hit king for MLB. Ichiro had great #'s in Japan but those shouldn't count.

Agreed, but Ichiro should get some extra points for not compiling his hits total by being his own manager and playing himself when he shouldn't just so that he could get the record.

And delusional Reds fans think he's one of the greatest hitters of all-time. Lol.

 

[Rockinkuwait]

When was that?

He set the mark in 85... He was the manager, but his OBP was .394 (best on the team, 4th in the NL). Why would any manager bench their #1 player at getting on base? His last year in the league you could argue he wasn't up to par, but he benched himself a LOT that year.
