pip07 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 I'm not sure how many of you have seen him throw this but if you have any idea of what it is, can you tell me how I could make it one of his pitches in the game? I was thinking of giving him a screwball but I'm not sure Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/11422-greg-maddux-backdoor-slider/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
baratta Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 it is actually just a monsterous 2-seam fastball. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/11422-greg-maddux-backdoor-slider/#findComment-136913 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pip07 Posted June 4, 2005 Author Share Posted June 4, 2005 What is the velocity on it around? I'm guessing mid 80's but I am not sure Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/11422-greg-maddux-backdoor-slider/#findComment-136915 Share on other sites More sharing options...

pip07 Posted June 4, 2005 Author Share Posted June 4, 2005 Thanks jhath, It's my favorite Maddux pitch by far, I hate when he doesn't get the call for it Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/11422-greg-maddux-backdoor-slider/#findComment-137008 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pookie Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Maddux has the best movement in the league bar none. Even his 4 seam fastball isn't straight. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/11422-greg-maddux-backdoor-slider/#findComment-137018 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there were more pitchers like him instead of these guys who try and throw 95+ over and over.
