In 1981 at the age of 18, Valenzuela joined the Dodgers. He had five shutouts in his first eight games. Deemed unstoppable, "Fernandomania" took hold of Dodger fans. He was named Rookie of the year in 1981. He also won the Cy Young Award making him the only player in history to win both awards in one season.
