1976: Dennis Martinez won his first game

On this day in 1976, Dennis Martinez won his first major league game.  He pitched 5.2 innings of relief as the O's beat Detroit 9-7.  

Martinez went on to win 245 and was the first major league player from Nicaragua.  
Dennis also pitched a perfect game in 1991 as an Expo.
