Ichiro Touching Triggers Giddyness In Seattle Woman

((HT: KCPQ-TV/Fox Seattle))

The HQ doesn't know if this is a first of its kind, but Mariners outfielder Ichiro Suzuki triggered a truly hyper-giddy reaction from a fan after the slightest amount of physical contact ever recorded chasing a foul ball.

Just think what would have really happened if Ichiro REALLY DID touch this woman more than he actually did...

The world may never know...
 

If he had touched any harder, she really would have to call her mom...
And either a lawyer or a doctor...

Safeco Sojourn

OK, I decided to take a road trip to the Emerald City of Seattle, and take in a Mariners game. Desperate, I know. I was hoping ManRam would have been traded to the M's instead of the Dodgers so I could have seen him, but hey, I still had Ichiro. Check out the photos below...



Ichiro has had such an effect on this city, I saw M's schedules in 10 different languages - Cantonese, Japanese, Chinese, etc. Every time he came up to bat or when into right field, the stands erupted.

Saw a great Dave "My, Oh My!" Niehaus tribute before the game started, after his long-deserved entrance into the Hall of Fame. Pretty cool.

Safeco Field is actually pretty cool. The set-up inside reminds me a LOT of Turner Field. Even though it looks like an unfinished airplane hangar from the outside, the inside is pretty cool. The skyline views are amazing.

And the chocolate covered strawberry kabobs were cool, too...ya just gotta try 'em.
