Pedro Martinez says he's the most influential player to ever step in Yankee Stadium
Pedro: ''I might be the most influential player that ever stepped in Yankee Stadium''
Pedro Martinez is a first ballot Hall of Famer, in my book. I'm not sure if any pitcher will ever have consecutive seasons that compare to his level of dominance in 1999 and 2000. That being said, it sounds like he might be a little delusional.

I don’t know if you realize this, I might be at times the most influential player that ever stepped in Yankee Stadium. I can honestly say that. I have all the respect in the world for the way they enjoy being fans. Sometimes they might be giving you the middle finger, just like they will be cursing you and telling you what color underwear you’re wearing. But at the end of the day, they’re just great fans that want to see the team win. I don’t have any problem with that.

Pedro's great, and he has even been impressive this year, but come on now... this is just starting to get ridiculous.

We'll see if this works to get the Yankees off their game tonight, but I kinda doubt it.

Pedro does sound delusional here.  I'm not even sure I know what he means by "influential" in that context?  Anyway, Cliff Lee will be a tough act to follow.

 Good one Alan. That was a memorable moment to be sure. You're a real man, Pedro (to paraphrase Tim McCarver). At least when Nolan Ryan pummeled Robin Ventura he was taking on someone his own... nevermind.

Most influential player ever-- I hope at least he's only referring to the NEW Yankee Stadium. Even then, that's quite a stretch.

I'd say Pedro was pretty dominant against Zimmer as well.

 I don't think there's anything else to say but, "I'll have what he's having..."

Pedro Martinez weighs all of 160 pounds, and I swear, 150 of it is balls.
