COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — Longtime Astros relief pitcher Billy Wagner joins a prestigious Hall of Fame class in Cooperstown Sunday.
Ichiro Suzuki was always known for his meticulous preparation during his 19-year Major League Baseball career.
For his induction into the Hall of Fame? Not so much.
“Of course, I’m nervous and I probably should be preparing more, but this morning I actually went to the field, long tossed and kind of ran and did my workout, so I guess for me that was more important,” Suzuki said Saturday through an interpreter on the eve of his enshrinement.
