DAMNIT. I was just coming to post about it!  I've got a bit of the article here. Enjoy.

TAMPA, Fla. -- The teenage son of former major league pitcher Dwight Gooden was arrested after he allegedly sold crack cocaine to undercover deputies, according to a newspaper report.


Dwight Gooden Jr., 17, was arrested Wednesday after he and 19-year-old Kendon Davis sold 2.4 grams crack cocaine to undercover deputies, Hillsborough County Sheriff's Lt. Rod Reder told the Tampa Tribune. The amount was valued at $200. He was charged with possession and delivery of crack cocaine.


After his arrest Gooden was taken to a juvenile detention center, Reder said.


The elder Gooden retired in 2001, ending his major league career with a 194-112 record and a 3.51 ERA.


He was suspended for 60 days in June 1994 for testing positive for cocaine while with the Mets. He tested positive for cocaine again while on suspension and was sidelined for the 1995 season.
