Dwight Gooden, the former New York Mets ace whose troubles with cocaine ruined a Hall-of-Fame career, was busted again for cocaine – this time in Holmdel.

Gooden, 54, who was the ace of the 1986 World Series championship team, was busted last month by police in Holmdel while he was apparently driving at 1 a.m., according to authorities. Gooden was arrested on June 7 in Holmdel and charged with possessing a white powdery substance believed to be cocaine, according to the Monmouth County Prosecutor's Office.

Gooden was found possessing drug paraphernalia and having two small green plastic baggies containing suspected cocaine, according to the MCPO. Gooden, a Piscataway resident, was also suspected of being under the influence of cocaine, according to the complaint.

His court date is scheduled for July 23 at 9 a.m. Gooden's drug troubles date back more than 30 years. He admitted that he missed in the 1986 ticker tape parade for the World Series team because he was high on cocaine.

His troubles first became public in 1987 when he tested positive for the drug. He was suspended for a month – just two years after he was the most dominant pitcher in baseball and won the Cy Young Award.

Since then, he has been in and out of trouble and served time in jail for his drug offenses.
