TOKYO — Ichiro Suzuki is enjoying it while he can. He’s back in Japan and sure to play at the Tokyo Dome when the Seattle Mariners face the Oakland Athletics in two games to open the Major League Baseball season. He’s 45 and knows it can end any moment, but if he has a grand retirement plan, he isn’t revealing it. “This is a great gift for me,” he said, speaking through an interpreter at a Saturday news conference. How will you know when it’s time to step aside?”“I have no idea when I will know that,” he said.
