MLB Network: Oldtime Baseball Game with Pedro Martinez and John Martin from DGA Productions on Vimeo.
John Martin passed away after a 2 year fight with ALS. He was a friend, jokester, cameraman, a salt of the earth kind of guy. ALS spares no one but it does give one small perk. Said best by fellow cameraman Pat Gamere: “Most people don’t get the opportunity to know how much they’re loved while they’re still here living. What a gift.”
During John’s battle, we filmed a story at the annual Oldtime Baseball Game, which chose to donate the proceeds to John and his family. Pedro Martinez headlined the event, and a lot of money was raised. John, we will forever miss seeing you out there – grinding, hoaxing, laughing, and giving us your gifts.
