Pedro Martinez
Pedro Martinez is a Dominican baseball pitcher widely considered among the greatest of all time.
He dominated Major League Baseball in the late 1990s and early 2000s, winning three Cy Young Awards and anchoring the Boston Red Sox's 2004 World Series championship team.
His combination of velocity, movement, and control made him nearly unhittable during his peak years.
Martinez was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2015.
