His greatest individual achievement came on July 28, 1991, when he pitched a perfect game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, becoming the first Latin American-born pitcher to accomplish the feat in Major League history. He also led the National League with a 2.39 ERA in 1991.

Martinez finished his remarkable career with 245 victories, 2,149 strikeouts, and a 3.70 ERA, establishing a record for Major League victories by a Latin American-born pitcher at the time of his retirement.
