Sports / MLB Maddux Beats Rockies For 350th Win Gonzalez three-run homer helps Padres end 5-game skid By Mitch Pritchard, Newser Staff Posted May 11, 2008 12:23 AM CDT Copied San Diego Padres Tadahito Iguchi, of Japan, grimaces after striking out during the seventh inning of a baseball game against the Colorado Rockies on Saturday, May 10, 2008 in San Diego. (AP Photo/Denis Poroy) Greg Maddux became the ninth pitcher in big league history to win 350 games, reaching the plateau in his fifth try and leading the San Diego Padres to a 3-2 win over the Colorado Rockies last night. With Adrian Gonzalez hitting a three-run homer and the Padres ending a five-game losing streak, Mad Dog held the Rockies to an unearned run and three hits in six innings. The 42-year-old Maddux (3-3) improved to 350-217 in 23rd big league seasons. It's another milestone to go along with his four NL Cy Young Awards, one World Series championship and a record 17 Gold Glove Awards. It was just the fifth win in 23 games for the Padres (13-24), who have the worst record in the majors. (More MLB stories.) Report an error
