I was in the 300 level. Kingdome. October 8, 1995. Dead Centerfield. I was looking right over Jack McDowell’s shoulder when Edgar hit “The Double”. It was, and still is, the greatest sports moment of my life. Thank you so much, for so much, Edgar Martinez!! #11
Imagine having an official MLB award named after you, and not be in their Hall of Fame. It defies all logic how this man (widely regarded by the greatest pitchers of the era as an all time great) has been snubbed for so long by the BBWAA.
“And we’ll be right there with you, as your name echoes throughout the halls...” It’s so fitting the day he got inducted, how many fans were chanting that name. Best part of the ceremony, man...
And Now he’s finally part of Baseball Immortality. Congratulations Edgar Martinez. Well deserved you finally made it to the Hall Of Fame today. My Oh My. ED-GARRRRRR.
If Edgar doesn’t make it in the Hall, I will personally find every single reporter who didn’t vote for him and demand to know why they didn’t vote for the greatest DH of all time.
Well we have two present day awards named after Puerto Rican players the first One to the Legend , the great one Roberto Clemente and now the Designated HITTER Award the Edgar Martinez Award but still today , we are not considered Americans and treated like trash but time after time we make the World eat their words , what team has more wins than any other team in the World Baseball Classic , guess who TEAM PUERTO RICO , currently we have the best second baseman in the game Javy Baez , the still best catcher in the game Yadier Molina and one of the top ten shortstops also Francisco Lindor, so take notes because there will be more of us in the HOF making our Legend proud.
He is the reason why i care about the M's Not Junior. not Buhner, Not Randy. Edgar i swear he could hit home runs in his sleep! had one of the most pure swings i have ever seen! im so glad hes in Cooperstown because he deserves it! when the first time i saw Secret Base's series about the Mariners and how they told about Egdar's story i just fell in love with him
It was amazing but sad that one of the biggest moments in franchise history was winning a division series so many years of suck 52 years old I’ll never see them play in a World Series so many years of suck
HE MADE IT TODAY! HE MADE IT TODAY! HE MADE IT TODAY! Edgar is voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame January 22, 2019.
BOOYAH!
Nobody deserves it more

It feels great to say that your comment hasn't aged very well :)

Dave's "The table is set and Edgar steps up to the plate" is timeless. Congratulation, Edgar!
This is the most underrated video in TH-cam
And Now he’s finally part of Baseball Immortality. Congratulations Edgar Martinez. Well deserved you finally made it to the Hall Of Fame today. My Oh My. ED-GARRRRRR.
Just imagine what Dave Neihaus would be saying after Edgar was elected to the Hall of Fame. That thought just puts a huge smile on your face!
The Admiral Edgar Martínez steps at Cooperstown In July, congratulations !!!!
Awesome piece. Well produced. Congrats Mariners on a great tribute.
If Edgar doesn’t make it in the Hall, I will personally find every single reporter who didn’t vote for him and demand to know why they didn’t vote for the greatest DH of all time.
I saw the double. Still have my ticket stub.

He's waited too long already. No disrespect to the other inducted HoF'ers, but this man put on hitting clinics every year.
Met Edgar last year at a restaurant and I had a fan girl moment. I couldn't believe it.
Congratulations Edgar!
King Edgar
Awesome video!

Cant wait for hall of fame weekend this year. Let's not get swept this time.

9 Strong Gaming it's damn shame he didn't get in the past couple years. The voting should be up to the fans not reporters
