Gooden Seeks Healthy Season In Indians Spring Debut
Dwight Gooden, 34, aims for a full healthy year after injuries last season and a 3.76 ERA in 28 starts. In his first spring outing he allowed one run in three innings and impressed manager Mike Hargrove with velocity and sharpness. The Indians, 2-2 in spring, also saw Richie Sexson snap an 0-for-10 skid with a ninth inning double and Wil Cordero and Enrique Wilson contribute late. The club travels to Dunedin to face the Blue Jays with Charles Nagy slated to start after flu and others like Orel Hershiser also expected to pitch.
