In 2004, Seattle Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki set a new record for hits in a season, breaking an 84 year old record set by St. Louis Browns 1B George Sisler. While visiting St. Louis for this year's All Star game, Ichiro paid his respects, laying flowers on Sisler's grave, and acknowledging the respect that Sisler's daughter showed by visiting Seattle to watch Ichiro break the record.
Some in baseball still respect and appreciate the past.
