Ichiro named All-Star Game MVP

Ichiro Suzuki was named the MVP of last night's All-Star Game, won by the AL, 5-4.

According to the Associated Press, " Ichiro Suzuki sped around the bases as the ball bounced away from Ken Griffey Jr. for the first inside-the-park home run in All-Star game history... Suzuki, on the verge of a large contract extension from the Mariners, had been 3-for-15 in All-Star play coming in. He got three hits, was the game's MVP and will be remembered for his strange shot, unfamiliar even to ballpark regulars such as Bonds."

As soon as he got around third I thought they would give him the MVP for it...though Griffey had a nice day as well...

Re: Ichiro named All-Star Game MVP

Seventy-eight All Star games, and that was the first inside-the-parker? Wow!

Ichiro was the easy choice for MVP....

Cool Re: Ichiro named All-Star Game MVP

He won an SUV? The players should donate it to their favorite charity.

Re: Ichiro named All-Star Game MVP

That was the strangest bounce I have ever seen a ball take off a wall.

I don't think there is there a pitcher that can get a ball past Ichiro. He was making contact with everything they threw and that was supposed to be the best there is last night.
