Robert Gordon Martyn (August 15, 1930 in Weiser, Idaho) is a former Major League Baseball outfielder who played from 1957 to 1959 for the Kansas City Athletics. ==College career== Martyn is an alumnus of Linfield College. His father Bernard Martyn, aunt Lillian Turner Millsap and uncle Bill Turner also attended Linfield. Bob’s first year at Linfield was 1948. He attended the college not only because much of his family went there, but also because it was affiliated with the Baptist church he went to. Although he played shortstop at high school in Twin Falls, Idaho, baseball coach Henry Lever immediately changed his position to outfielder. Martyn once said of the change, “That was probably a major break for my future.” Bob was a Northwest Conference All-Star in 1950, 1951 and 1952, and he helped lead the Linfield Wildcats to conference championship victories in 1950 and 1951. Academically, Martyn double-majored in mathematics and sociology and he graduated cum laude. While playing professional baseball, he earned his masters degree in education in 1959, studying between seasons. In 2000, Martyn was elected to the Linfield College Athletics Hall of Fame. His father, Bernard Martyn was elected in 1999. They are one of two father-son combinations in the Linfield College Athletics Hall of Fame. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bob Martyn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
