Expos Best - Pedro Martinez. Custom Card.

On Jun 3 1995, Pedro pitched 9 perfect innings for the Expos vs the Padres. Joey Hamilton matched the shutout for 9, giving up only 3 hits and 2 walks.

I watched this game on TV, and what really drove me nuts was that when Moises Alou singled to lead off the top of the 9th, there was no attempt made to bunt him along. While I'm no fan of bunts, this would have been the perfect place to play for that one run, as it was pretty clear that Pedro only needed one. Fletcher flied out, and then Tarasco hit into a DP.

The Expos then got the run in the top of the 10th, but Pedro was gassed and Bip Roberts doubled to lead off the 10th. It took a good outing by Mel Rojas and a good play to the plate by Jeff Treadway to preserve the win.

The All Martinez All-Stars

There are quite a few others that made minimal impacts on the major leagues, but could be used to fill out the roster and keep the union happy. Still, this is a pretty decent team that could compete against any other all-name team.
