Gooden Shuts Out Diamondbacks
Today was Dwight Gooden's turn in the rotation for the Baltimore Orioles and he made the most of it, shutting out the Arizona Diamondbacks on 6 hits.

The 32-year-old right-hander led the Orioles to an easy 8-0 victory, allowing 2 walks and tallying 11 strikeouts.

"I hope we miss him next time," Arizona manager Alen Maglajac said. "Gooden certainly pitched a strong game against us today. He was in a groove, throwing everything for strikes. Throwing hard. Changing speeds."

This season Gooden has a 10-7 mark in 24 starts with a 2.72 ERA. He has given up 134 hits in 172 innings, struck out 174 and issued 55 walks. Opposing clubs have compiled a .213 batting average against him.
