Synopsis "Pedro: La Historia de mi Vida (in Spanish)"

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, llegan estas memorias. Pedro Martínez nos cuenta sobre su vida y carrera, desde una niñez pobre en República Dominicana hasta convertirse en uno de los mejores lanzadores de todos los tiempos… y uno de los más intimidantes. Con el humor pintoresco que lo caracteriza, Pedro Martínez cuenta su extraordinaria historia: desde sus días en las ligas menores esforzándose por ganarse el respeto de sus compañeros y sus primeros días en el solitario Montreal, hasta su legendaria carrera con los Red Sox de Boston. Estas memorias de una de las figuras más enigmáticas y emblemáticas del béisbol inspirarán a generaciones de fanáticos. www.pedromartinez.com   “Mi compadre tiene la fuerza y el carisma para inspirar. Así como lo hizo conmigo en el inicio de mi carrera, lo hará con todo el que lea este libro”.— VLADIMIR GUERRERO, Expelotero dominicano de Grandes Ligas, Jugador Más Valioso de la Liga Americana en 2004, miembro del Salón de la Fama Nacional del Béisbol de Estados Unidos y del Salón de la Fama del Béisbol Canadiense   “Hay muy poco que este campeón de la Serie Mundial no cuenta en este libro; se expande sobre cualquier tema, y ofrece una mirada reveladora de una carrera llamativa... Los detalles íntimos que comparte Martínez desde dentro y fuera de la casa club hacen de este un libro único”. - WASHINGTON POST  ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFrom 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
