Will Ichiro get the * from Maris?

Posted By: Hal Lewis

For years, the debate was whether Maris should have the * next to his single-season home run record ... because Ruth set his in a 154-game season, NOT a 162-game season.

However, I have not yet heard ANYONE mention the * in regards to Ichiro approaching GEORGE SISLER'S single-season hits record 257, set in 1920 in a 154-game season).

Is the modern media so intent on "being a part of history" that they will IGNORE the facts??
