The John Martin Award
Given to each league's dominant pitcher of the year, this award is named in memory of John Martin's right arm, which is rumored to have died somewhere around 1998. Happily, John himself, is alive and well and living in Austin TX. One of the league's founding members in 1992, Martin set the standard for pitching in the early years of the Raritan Valley NABA. Author of the league's first no-hitter, he was best known for his enduring stamina. His more heroic feats include a 10 and one-third inning performance in the 1993 League Championship Game where he allowed one earned run. And there was his three game performance in the 1995 Colonial States Tournament in Virginia Beach where he was 2-0, allowing just two earned runs while leading a hybrid Mustang team to the status of Tournament Champions.
After a storied career with the Middlesex Bears (1992-98), Martin's legacy to the Raritan Valley NABA was the formation of the New Brunswick Mets in 1999. In 2000, a mere year after his departure from the area, those same Mets challenged his former Bears for the AA League title.
Recipients:
2000 A - Pedro Estrada, North Essex Cardinals
2000 AA - Steve Berchoff, New Brunswick Mets
