ST. LOUIS -- The road crowd gave Ichiro Suzuki a standing ovation when he came to the plate and another nice round of applause after he singled as a pinch-hitter in the eighth inning for his 2,991st hit.As much as shaving the countdown to nine, it ended up really helping the Miami Marlins, too.Hes been amazing for us all year, manager Don Mattingly said of the 42-year-old Suzuki, who scored the tying run in a 7-6 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night.
