- Man that is a lot of white on the card. Might have been better to find a card of Fitz in his red jersey instead.
- Bio on the back: "He's the type of player that when you take him out of the box, it says no assembly required." Very high praise. 14 years later, he's still rolling.
- Unbelievably, there are no copies of this card on COMC right now. There are black and gold parallels available, but no base.
- Catch #3: 3rd quarter of his first NFL game against the Rams. 10 yard completion from Josh McCown. Larry has now caught a pass in each of his first 3 quarters as a pro.

- Two hundred and 62 hits. Imagine that number. Play 162 games, and in 100 games get at least 2 hits. That didn't happen as you know, but putting the number in that perspective makes you think about how great Ichiro's 2004 season was.
- One team had 3 players in the top 10 hit category, the Orioles. Tejada (203), Mora (187) and Lopez (183) cracked the list that also contained Damon, Jeter, Kotsay and Crawford.
- Career game #28 starts a really good run for Ichiro. He extended his hit streak to 10 games by going 3 for 5 with a double and 3 runs scored against the Red Sox. The M's won 10-3 increasing Jamie Moyer's record to 5-0

- This is why I love older cards. This card features a hall of famer, a future hall of famer, and Melvin Mora. You just never know with baseball what can happen during a given season.
- The back of the card shows the top 10 hitters in the AL for 2003. There were 2 teams that had two players each in the top 10; the Tigers (IRod and Guillen) and the A's (Durazo and Kotsay).
- Career game #27; Ichiro runs his hit streak to 9 games with a triple and 2 runs scored in a 5-1 win over the Red Sox. Aaron Sele would get the win running his record to 5-0 on the 2nd of May.

- Seeing this card made me think "how many miles has Ichiro ran while running the bases during his career?" I'm sure that there's somebody out there that can figure this out.
- 2005 Topps=the Ichiro set. He is a part of 6 cards in the set. Crazy.
- Game #24 is a big one for Ichiro as he goes 3 for 6 with a run in an 8-5 win over the White Sox. Ichiro gains back 8 of the 10 batting average points he lost the previous game and is now hitting .345. Ichiro's hit streak is up to 6 games.
