23 Days Until the @CSURams join the @pac12! 🐏 For Day 23, we are bringing CSU Baseball back to the timeline to highlight one of the greatest arms to ever take the mound in Fort Collins. A homegrown Colorado talent who dominated the collegiate ranks before becoming a World Series Champion. #23*, Felix "Tippy" Martinez (1970-1972)! ⚾ A La Junta native, Martinez anchored the Rams' rotation in the early 70s. He nearly pitched CSU to a WAC championship in 1972 before making the leap to professional baseball. A legendary, record-setting playing resume: - Set the CSU single-season record with a 1.25 ERA (Ranked 2nd nationally in 1972) - The first and only 10-win season in CSU Baseball history (10-1 in 1972) - 14-year Major League Baseball career (115 career saves) - 1983 World Series Champion and American League All-Star (Baltimore Orioles) While his long major league career was defined by his elite relief pitching, Martinez cemented his name in baseball lore during the 1983 season. In a tied extra-inning game against the Toronto Blue Jays, he incredibly picked off three different baserunners at first base in a single inning to escape a jam and help secure the win. Elite collegiate production and an unforgettable MLB legacy.😤 * (Tippy wore #23 for the Orioles, but I was unable to confirm his number at CSU or find many photos!) #Pac12Countdown #GoRams
