This is my last challenge as part of the SportsVizSunday team. It's been an amazing few years and I've loved getting to "meet" you all. Thank you for all your support and for inspiring me with your amazing visualizations.
Selecting my last data set was a tough decision. I debated between a few ideas but kept coming back to my favorite sports teams, the Boston Red Sox and my favorite pitcher, Pedro Martinez.
The Pedro years were electric, one could argue that his 1999 & 2000 seasons were the best consecutive seasons of any pitcher in MLB history. I've never experienced anything like Pedro being Pedro at Fenway Park, it was incredible. So for my final challenge you have Pedro Martinez career stats.
The data sets are sourced from Baseball Reference and Wikipedia. Baseball Reference has a glossary on the page that explains the acronyms & stats. There are additional data points on Baseball Reference that may be interesting, so feel free to supplement or use additional data in your visualization.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you all create and thanks again for all the support over the past few years!
