Dwight Gooden's first career win came on April 14, 1986, when he struck out 11 Montreal Expos in seven innings at Shea Stadium. The rookie right-hander allowed just two hits and one run to lead the Mets to a 5-1 victory. Gooden's dominant performance marked the beginning of a legendary season that saw him win 17 games and finish with a 2.60 ERA en route to winning the National League Rookie of the Year award.
