  • Overview

    Una memoria audaz, sin restricciones, de uno de los lanzadores más dominantes y dinámicos que jamás haya jugado en el juego.

    Del gran lanzador, campeón de la Serie Mundial, miembro del Salón de la Fama, invitado ocho veces al Juego de las Estrellas y ganador del Premio Cy Young en tres ocasiones, llega esta memoria sin límites sobre la vida y carrera de Pedro Martínez, desde una niñez pobre en la República Dominicana hasta convertirse en uno de los mejores lanzadores de todos los tiempos, y uno de los más intimidantes.
     
    En este libro Pedro Martínez, con el humor colorido que lo caracteriza, cuenta su extraordinaria historia. Desde sus días en las ligas menores esforzándose por recibir respeto de sus compañeros; a sus primeros días en el solitario Montreal; hasta su carrera legendaria con los Medias Rojas de Boston cuando; inicio tras inicio, siempre deslumbró con su genialidad en el lanzamiento; hasta sus últimos años en el montículo, mientras le daba los toques finales a una obra maestra que lo convirtió en un ícono, esta memoria de una de las figuras más enigmáticas y emblemática del béisbol inspirará a generaciones de fanáticos.
     
    Pedro Martínez es un libro inteligente, sumamente divertido y con un toque  diva-esco como el mismo Pedro. . . Compra el libro. Lee el libro. Celebra la era dorada en el béisbol de Boston”. — Boston Globe
     
    “Hay muy poco que este campeón de la Serie Mundial no cuenta en este libro; se expande  sobre cualquier tema, y que ofrece una mirada reveladora de una carrera colorida. . . Los detalles íntimos que ofrece Martínez desde dentro y fuera de la casa club hacen de este libro un libro único”. —Washington Post


    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    From the eight-time All-Star and three-time Cy Young Award–winning pitcher, a bold, no-holds-barred memoir of his career, from his hardscrabble upbringing in the Dominican Republic to becoming one of the greatest pitchers of all time.

    Pedro Martinez entered the big leagues a scrawny power pitcher with a lightning arm who they said wasn’t “durable” enough, who they said was a punk. Yet Martinez willed himself to become one of the most intimidating pitchers to have ever played the game, an eight-time All-Star, three-time Cy Young Award winner, World Series champion, and Hall of Famer. 
      
    In Pedro, the always colorful pitcher opens up to tell his remarkable story. From his days in the minor leagues clawing for respect; to his early days in lonely Montreal; to his legendary run with the Red Sox when, start after start, he dazzled with his pitching genius; to his twilight years on the mound as he put the finishing touches on a body of work that made him an icon, this memoir by one of baseball’s most enigmatic figures will entertain and inspire generations of fans to come. 
     
    Pedro the book is as smart, as funny, and as diva-esque as Pedro the pitcher . . . Buy the book. Read the book. Celebrate a golden era in Boston baseball.”Boston Globe 
     
    “There is little the eight-time All-Star holds back about any subject as he offers a revealing look at a colorful career . . . The intimate details Martinez offers up from both inside and outside the clubhouse make the book a winner.”Washington Post 
     
    “This is the beauty of this book, the machinations of a modern pitcher's mind . . . Knowing and gritty, this memoir should’ve been printed on rawhide.” —Los Angeles Times
