Looking Long

Ichiro is one of the game's great contact hitters, but he's never been known for power. I don't know if that was his first two-homer game, but it likely was, because he has 102 home runs in his career -- his 12-year, 7,945 at-bat career. That's one every 77.9 at-bats.
There's a player on the Red Sox who has three home runs in 226 at-bats in his career, or one every 75.3 at-bats.
That player's name is Josh Beckett.
In short, Josh gave up two dingers to a guy who is less of a deep threat than he is.
