With a single on Tuesday night, Ichiro Suzuki now sits just three hits shy of 3,000 for his Major League career.

Ichiro had gone 0-for-7 in the at-bats leading up to the single.

He is not expected to start on Wednesday afternoon when the Miami Marlins take on the Philadelphia Phillies.
 He would be the 30th player in Major League history to reach 3,000 hits.
