Ichiro Suzuki reached his 3,000th MLB hit on August 7, 2016. The author analyzes Ichiro's journey to 3,000 hits using Python and MLB play-by-play and pitch tracking data from 2015-2016. He extracts Ichiro's at-bat and pitch-level data to analyze trends in Ichiro's pitch selection and performance over the two seasons leading up to the milestone. The author plans to present further analysis and visualizations of Ichiro's path to 3,000 hits at an upcoming Python conference.
