Edgar Martinez was one of the best right-handed hitters of his era. He retired at the conclusion of the 2004 season, after spending 18 distinguished and loyal years playing for the Seattle Mariners. He finished with a .312/,418/,515/,933 slashline, which places him in the company of some of the game's immortals. Over his career, he made seven All-Srar teams. won a pair of American League Batting Titles, five Silver Slugger Awards and five Most Outstanding Designated Hitter Awards. He is arguably one of the greatest Designated Hitters to ever swing a bat, as evidenced by the fact that Major League Baseball renamed the Most Outstanding Designated Hitter Award to the Edgar Martinez Award in his honor, upon his retirement. This week, we profile this man's amazing baseball journey from Dorado, Puerto Rico to Seattle, Washington and eventually to Cooperstown, New York, to rightfully take his place in the Pantheon Of Baseball Immortals; The National Baseball Hall Of Fame. #EdgarMartinez #CarmeloMartinez #MartyMartinez #HolliMartinez #SeattleMariners #JimLefbvr #KenGriffeyJr #RandyJohnson #JackMcDowell #IchiroSuzuki #MarianoRivera #PedroMartinez #BretBoone #DaveNiehaus
