Nothing particularly special or unique in his style, in fact it could almost serve as a "how to pitch properly" clinic.

Maddux is a fine pitcher, one of the greatest ever, but when I watch him I always find myself asking "How's he doing that? How does he get these guys out?"

Watching Maddux pitch is like watching Poetry in Motion. He just "gets it". He's short and kinda stocky, yet manages to generate arm strength and great movement on his pitches with a smooth, effective delivery. It's masterful the way he winds up and delivers pitches with pinpoint accuracy. You can tell he knows what he's doing and his success is evident.
