Greg Maddux recorded victory No. 354 on Monday against the Padres, tying Roger Clemens on the all-time win list, according to Associated Press. "I didn't talk about pitching as much as I would have liked to, I know that, but I've always respected what he's done," Maddux said of his conversation with Clemens. "He did it in the American League, and that's a lot tougher over there. I think everybody knows that. But I've always considered him the best in the game because of the way he threw a baseball, how he set up hitters, and how he competed." Maddux, who is 7-11 this season, allowed two runs on six hits against San Diego, his former team, on Monday.
