MAD ABOUT MADDUX
Notes from Greg Maddux's 349th career victory:
• Ranks second among living pitchers with 349 career wins, five behind Roger Clemens.
• Sunday marked the 90th time he's won a start in which he allowed no runs. That's the same total that Clemens has had in his career. That's tied for second-most in the past 50 years behind Nolan Ryan's 97.
• It was the 24th time he's won a start in which he pitched exactly five innings. In the past 50 years, no pitcher has more "bare minimum" wins than Maddux, and the next-best active pitcher is Jamie Moyer, with 17.
