- Textbook catch, even if it's during a photo shoot. Clearly Larry is looking the ball into his hands.
- The card # on the back is almost impossible to read. It's in a small gray box in the upper left corner with white numbers. Had to get the magnifying glass with the light to read it.
- Market watch: Kind of surprised that there were only 2 copies on COMC. One at $3.25, the other at $7.
- Career catch #11 was his first catch that didn't gain any yardage. It was the last play of the first quarter against the Falcons in week 3 of 2004. Brutal game as the Falcons won 6-3.

- What intrigued me about this card instantly was Ichiro's glove. Looks like something from the turn of the 20th century, doesn't it?
- Bio on the back: "in 2003, he led American League rightfielders in every defensive category, 12 assists (including 2 in one inning)." Pretty good stat to feature on a gold glove winner's card, right?
- Career game 26 sees Ichiro go 1 for 4 extending his hit streak to 8 games. Ichiro has one of 3 hits off of Red Sox starter Pedro Martinez as the Sox won 2-0.

- Maybe the top 2 players of the decade? Ichiro and Pujols would get my vote.
- Love this photo with the shot of U.S. Cellular Field in the background. More photos like this would be welcome.
- Career game #25 would see Ichiro's latest hit streak go to 7 games with a 1 for 6 performance against the White Sox. Ichiro's hit came in the 9th inning off of Keith Foulke. The Sox would go on to lose the game in 14 innings, 2-1.

- Great card depicting Ichiro breaking the 84 year old record that George Sisler held for most hits in a season. Love how the photo captures the fireworks going off in the background while the hits counter is rolling over to 258.
- 4 copies of this card are currently for sale on COMC. Cheapest is at 57 cents, most expensive is at $1.75. Can't say that I'd pay $1.75 for this card, and I might be stretching it to pay 57 cents as well.
- Game 23, sees the hit streak go to 5 with a 1 for 6 performance against the White Sox. The hit was a double off of starter James Baldwin in a 8-3 win to extend the M's record to 19-4. Ichiro's average dips 10 points to .337.
