August 5, 200520 yr QUOTE(Tadahito Iguchi @ Aug 5, 2005 -> 11:18 AM) Whats going on? If you really have that record at Sox games, you better be at every game in October.
August 5, 200520 yr no one missed anything. Just a thread anticipating a Ichiro/Iguchi connection story.
August 5, 200520 yr There were already talking about it this morning on the radio. Comparing the adjustment and the ability to adjust to the strike zone and hit to all fields.
August 5, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 5, 2005 -> 11:39 AM) Should this even qualify as a thread? Nothing was said here. Nothing at all. When the 10+ Iguchi/Ichiro stories are out, you'll be happy this thread is here. Go ahead, put them all here.
August 5, 200520 yr Author QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Aug 5, 2005 -> 01:53 PM) I do know that Shingo and Ichiro were friends. Are you sure? If I remember correctly, Shingo said although they played in Japan, they played at different times or something to that end. I remember it being a pretty big deal when they met last year because I thought it was a first.

Well, something I am certain of is they never faced each other in Japan. There was a big to-do about them never facing each other.
August 5, 200520 yr I believe shingo and tadahito played in different leagues in japan (similar to our AL/NL) and that's why they never faced each other.
