Ichiro looking for 1,500th hit

Jul 28, 2007 - 1:16 PM Oakland (49-54) at Seattle (55-46) 4:05 pm EDT

SEATTLE (Ticker) - Ichiro Suzuki will hope to get halfway to 3,000 hits when the Seattle Mariners host the Oakland Athletics in the third of a four-game series Saturday.

Ichiro recorded his 1,499th hit in Friday's 7-1 triumph over the Athletics, which snapped the Mariners' season-long seven-game losing streak.

Chad Gaudin (8-5, 3.66 ERA), who is winless in his last three starts, will try to stop Suzuki from becoming the third fastest player since 1900 to reach 1,500 hits. The 24-year-old righthander is 0-2 with a 9.88 ERA in his last three outings.

He will be opposed by Horacio Ramirez (5-3, 6.75), who was tagged for eight runs and 11 hits with five strikeouts in Monday's 8-7 loss to the Texas Rangers.

The Athletics have won three of their last five contests.
