Maddux (statistic)
A Maddux, in baseball statistics, is when a pitcher throws a shutout of nine or more innings with fewer than 100 pitches. Writer Jason Lukehart invented the statistic in 2012 and named it after his favorite baseball player, Greg Maddux.
Maddux has the most career Madduxes with 13 since 1988, the first year of complete pitch count data. Zane Smith has the second-most career Madduxes with seven, and shares the single-season record with Maddux, at three each. Max Fried is the leader among active players, with three in his career. The 1988 season had the most Madduxes with 25, while the COVID-pandemic-shortened season had none. Roy Halladay is the only player to have thrown an extra-inning Maddux, throwing 99 pitches in 10 innings on September 6, 2003.
