Check that number again big guy. He struck out 20 not 24.

Good pitchers have the ability to expand the strike zone. It’s a subliminal game between pitcher and umpire. Greg Maddux was the best at it, but all good pitchers do it.

Ok, fine. Find another pitcher in the history of the game with your new numbers.
Bret Saberhagen. 174 3-0 counts in 10,421 PAs (w/ 25 IBBs).
Excluding the IBBs, that's one 3-0 count every 70 PAs, compared to Maddux's one every 41 PAs.

Yup. Always kills me when Barves fans cry about Eric Gregg in the NLCS. They got away with that shite throughout the 90s

OP is correct. Thank you for straightening that out.

It’s still unbelievable, just not as unbelievable as the fake stat in the meme
I thought once something became unbelievable then that was about it?

Maddux faced twice as many hitters and played 7 more years than Saberhagen.
