In 2001, Suzuki became the first Japanese-born position player to be posted and signed to an MLB club.[1] He led the American League (AL) in batting average and stolen bases en route to being named AL Rookie of the Year and AL MVP.Suzuki was the first MLB player to enter the Japanese Baseball Hall of Fame (The Golden Players Club). He was a ten-time MLB All-Star and won the 2007 All-Star Game MVP Award for a three-hit performance that included the event's first-ever inside-the-park home run. Suzuki won a Rawlings Gold Glove Award in each of his first 10 years in the majors and had an American League–record seven hitting streaks of 20 or more games, with a high of 27.
