"I know you discounted it early, but there is no logical consistancy. Oh's home runs (like Ichiro's hits) were earned fairly on the field of play."

They're different factors. One is the field of play; the other is in a not comparable field of play

Baselines are still 90ft for Ichiro's hits here and there....He's not a power threat here or there.
Oh's fields were much smaller; his number is not akin to US comparison.
Ichiro maybe got 8 homers a year there that he's not getting here. That's not sizable enough to matter in the overall hits mark imo.
Oh's field is clearly uncomparable.
Ichiro's....not so much.
