Ichi for D.C?
The Seattle Mariners manager proclaimed that slogan Wednesday morning in an appearance on MLB Network Radio.
“We started a campaign the other day, maybe you guys can help me with this,” Scott Servais said on the show. “I know a lot of today’s players don’t want to be in the home run hitting contest. I think that Ichiro would be a great addition to the home run hitting contest at the All-Star Game.
“Write-in vote – Ichi for D.C. Let’s run with it.”
He was later met by some skeptical media members.
