James Augustine Services authentication (JSA) provides the third-party autograph verification that confirms the signature's authenticity through JSA's examination process, supplying the certification documentation that gives the item its full collectible standing in the autographed memorabilia market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e⚾ Edgar Martinez was born January 2, 1963, in New York City, and raised in Dorado, Puerto Rico — the municipality on Puerto Rico's northern coast, in the Dorado metro area that sits along the Atlantic coast west of San Juan, where the agricultural and coastal traditions of the island region shaped the early life and the baseball foundation of the player who would become one of the most beloved figures in Seattle Mariners franchise history. Martinez signed with the Mariners organization in 1982 and spent his entire professional career — 18 major league seasons, 1987 through 2004 — in the Seattle organization, a loyalty to one franchise that has become increasingly rare in the modern game and that cemented his identification with the teal-and-navy Mariners teams whose competitive windows produced some of the most memorable baseball in Pacific Northwest sports history. His career .312 batting average, 309 home runs, and 1,261 RBI across a career played almost entirely as a designated hitter forced the Baseball Writers' Association of America to reckon with the designated hitter's place in Hall of Fame evaluation — a conversation that played out across 14 ballot years before his induction at Cooperstown in 2019, the year that confirmed what the Seattle baseball community had known for decades.
