Ichiro Suzuki became the 30th player in MLB history to reach 3,000 career hits with a triple Sunday in Denver, and he was in a joking mood after the game. In his press conference, a reporter asked Ichiro how it felt to get the milestone "out of the way after a long wait.

Ichiro responded by issuing a savage burn to Marlins first baseman Justin Bour through a translator.

Bour tips the scales at 265 pounds according to the Marlins' website, or around 1.53 Ichiros. Bour took the joke in stride.
