MLB Network to re-air Cubs legend Greg Maddux's 300th career win

Share

For all the re-airing of classic baseball games lately, it feels like we haven't seen any Cubs games from outside the 2016 season. And, hey, 2016 was a special campaign, but it'd be cool to relive some of the memorable games from years past, too, ya know?

Cubs fans will soon have that opportunity.

In honor of his 54th birthday, MLB Network is re-airing Greg Maddux's 300th career win Tuesday at 9 a.m. CT. The game will take fans back to Aug. 7, 2004, when Maddux and the Cubs beat the Giants 8-4 in San Francisco.

MLB Network will also re-air a few of Maddux's memorable games from his tenure with the Braves. The right-hander will get in on the fun by live-tweeting the action.

The 2004 season ended infamously for the Cubs, but looking back at a top moment from that season sure will be a treat.
