Description: Pedro Martinez is a retired professional baseball player who is widely regarded as one of the greatest pitchers of all time. He was born on October 25, 1971, in Manoguayabo, Dominican Republic. Martinez began his professional baseball career in 1988, when he signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers as an amateur free agent. He made his Major League debut in 1992, but it wasn't until he was traded to the Montreal Expos in 1994 that he began to make a name for himself. In 1997, Martinez had a breakout season with the Expos, posting a 17-8 record and a 1.90 ERA. He won the National League Cy Young Award that year, the first of three he would win in his career. After spending several seasons with the Boston Red Sox and the New York Mets, Martinez retired from baseball in 2011 with a career record of 219-100 and a 2.93 ERA. He was an eight-time All-Star and won three Cy Young Awards. Martinez's best season was arguably 2000, when he went 18-6 with a 1.74 ERA and 284 strikeouts for the Red Sox. He also helped lead the Red Sox to the World Series championship in 2004, their first since 1918. Martinez was known for his impressive pitching arsenal, which included a high-velocity fastball, a devastating changeup, and a nasty curveball. He was also known for his fierce competitive spirit and his ability to dominate opposing hitters. Martinez was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2015, cementing his legacy as one of the greatest pitchers in baseball history.
