Martin's 46 saves is a season high for the Rampage and earned the goaltender, who was making his AHL debut, the First Star of the Game.
Maxim Noreau got the Rampage on the board with an early power play goal, and Chris Bigras' blast from the point added to the lead just over five minutes into the contest.
A Gemel Smith power-play goal just 2:36 into the second stanza cut the San Antonio lead to one, and the Rampage took a 2-1 lead into the intermission.
Michael Schumacher scored an insurance goal for the Rampage late in the final frame to secure the 3-1 win, San Antonio's second victory in four meetings with their interstate rival.
San Antonio finished 1-for-3 on the power play while holding the Stars to one goal on six opportunities with the man advantage.
