- Fantastic shot of Ichiro about to make contact with the baseball. Swings don't get much better than his.
- Bio on the back: "...the superstar outfielder also established a Mariners record with 12 triples in 2005." This kind of surprised me, as the M's have had quite a few speedy players in their 40+ year history.
- 5 copies of this card currently on COMC, ranging from 69 cents to 75 cents. The Gold Medallion version also had a copy for 69 cents. The key word in that 2nd sentence is "had".
- Career game #36 was a pretty good one for Ichiro. He went 4 for 6 with a 2B, 3B, a RBI and 3 runs scored as the Mariners beat their expansion cousins 11-7. He raised his batting average 11 points to .351 and his OPS went up 36 points to .846.
