Ichiro Suzuki has entered the "Baseball Hall of Fame," which can be seen as the hall of fame of Japanese baseball. However, the number of votes cast is unexpected, drawing keen attention. He is a legendary player who also voted for the Major League Hall of Fame, and even in Japan, a considerable number of votes were cast against him. Online, voters criticized him for being envious.메이저놀이터
The Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame's Commendation Committee announced the Player of the Year on Wednesday. He was inducted into the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame along with Hitoki Iwase. Out of 353 voters, 349 people voted, and Ichiro garnered 323 votes, far exceeding the standard of entry into the Baseball Hall of Fame, 75 percent (262 votes). He garnered 92.6 percent of the vote. After the results, many questioned the 26 votes cast.
Ichiro is also a player who draws attention to whether he will be unanimously voted for or not in the Major League Hall of Fame. However, baseball fans were shocked by the fact that many Japanese citizens in their home country did not agree to Ichiro's joining the Major League Baseball Hall of Fame.
This year, KBO MVP Kim Do-young received 95 votes and 94.1 percent of the 101 votes. Considering Ichiro's career, 92.6 percent of the votes cast for joining the baseball center is something I do not immediately understand.
"Ichiro is a legendary figure who is certain to win the Hall of Fame in the U.S. and Japan. I can only think of it as jealousy that did not vote for him," "What is the value of the Japanese Baseball Hall at a time when Ichiro is not unanimous?" and "Who else would get unanimous support?" Japanese Daily Sports reported on Sunday.
Ichiro is certain to enter the Hall of Fame in the Major League Hall of Fame vote to be released on the 22nd (Korea time). Out of a total of 392 voters, 163 (including 10 anonymous) disclosed their voting results, and none except Ichiro. However, it is not yet time for those who have disclosed their voting results to be confident of a unanimous vote, less than half of all voters.
There is no doubt that Ichiro will be immediately inducted into the Hall of Fame when the results of the vote are released on January 22 next year, MLB.com reporter Paul Casella said on Sunday (Korea time). However, one important question arises about the result of his vote. Will Ichiro become the second player ever to be inducted into the Hall of Fame unanimously? We do not know until the results of the BBWAA vote come out, but when we asked 55 MLB.com players, they were divided. "Ichiro asked if he will be inducted unanimously, but 25 people said yes, and 30 said no," he wrote.
Jason Stark, a reporter for The Athletic, has already written a negative column on Ichiro's possibility of unanimous decision. He also did not deny that Ichiro was qualified for unanimous decision. Instead, he saw that unanimous decision was difficult due to the tendency of the voters.
"Rivera is the only player who has been unanimously inducted into the Hall of Fame in BBWAA's 90-year voting," Stark said. "There have been no unanimous players among the fielders for nearly a century. Our respected association is so innovative," he said, sarcastically criticizing reporters' tendency to vote because they were reluctant to accept "unanimous agreement."
In the meantime, Ichiro is the seventh player to join the Japan Baseball Hall in the first year of candidate registration at the Japan Baseball Hall, which was established in 1995. "Ichiro said, "Thank you for allowing me to join the Japan Baseball Hall even though I played for nine years in Japan and 19 years in the U.S.."
