#298.....
Greg Maddux pitched his second consecutive complete game last night. Check out his line:

9 IP  4 H  0 BB  2 ER  6 K

The two runs came off two home runs by Javier Valentin. Yes, that Javier Valentin, he of the 14 career home runs. It took Maddux only 92 pitches to spin this gem, and reminded me of watching him in '95. Heck, it reminded me of watching him for all of the 90's, when there was none better.

If nobody plans on bringing attention to Greg Maddux's win total, I'll continute to do my best to remind everyone lucky enough to stop by here. I said it before, and I'll say it once more (and probablly for #299 & #300 as well). We don't know how lucky we are to have watched this guy pitch. It sure seems that nobody will truly appreciate him until he's gone. It's insane he's getting such little publicity for this. Do you guys think its because of his reserved nature, because he's underrated overall, or just that people are sick of it all after seeing Roger Clemens do it just last year? I'm not sick of it at all.
