Friend of mine posted this on Facebook: Greg Maddux faced 20,421 batters during his career. Of those, only 310 saw a 3-0 count. Of those, 177 were intentional walks. Incredible.

Maddux was the poster boy for the two basic things that all pitchers should do but most don't
1. Work quick. A pitcher who takes three laps around the mound after every pitch is only helping the batter. 2. Throw strikes. Too many pitchers who want to make the batter chase a pitch that's three miles out of the strike zone.
Maddux didn't have overwhelming stuff, but he was the best I've ever seen. And he was fun to watch.

Movement, location, and change speeds. He did everything except throw hard, and he was one of the best of all time.
