Martinez tossed 7.1 shutout innings and allowed six hits and no walks in Sunday's no-decision against the Cubs on Sunday night. He struck out 10.
Martinez certainly deserved the victory in this one, but closer Seung Hwan Oh blew the save in the top of the ninth inning by allowing a three-run bomb to Willson Contreras. Martinez certainly proved he's both a real-life and fantasy ace in this one. He has the ability to get plenty of groundballs while also posting high strikeout totals for fantasy owners.
