ST. LOUIS -- The road crowd gave Ichiro Suzuki a standing ovation when he came to the plate and another nice round of applause after he singled as a pinch-hitter in the eighth inning for his 2,991st hit.As much as shaving the countdown to nine, it ended up really helping the Miami Marlins, too.Hes been amazing for us all year, manager Don Mattingly said of the 42-year-old Suzuki, who scored the tying run in a 7-6 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night.

Of his curtain call after a three-run shot in the fourth, he said, Its horrible now.Manager Mike Matheny noted a number of non-plays and added, It seemed like whenever we had one it hurt us.The hit was the first since July 4 for Suzuki. Hes had just seven pinch-hit appearances and one start this month with the Marlins, who have a steady outfield rotation of Christian Yelich, Marcell Ozuna and Giancarlo Stanton.You know if he was playing every day, every day, every day, you know it wouldnt be long, but in our situation you dont know quite how long thats going to take, Mattingly said. So, I dont think anybodys getting too crazy over it right now.Suzuki did not speak to reporters after the game.The Cardinals blew leads of 4-1 and 6-5 to fall to 19-27 at home.
