Cubs Pitcher Kyle Hendricks Breaks Down His 81-Pitch Complete Game Shutout vs. the Cardinals

On May 3, 2019, Cubs pitcher Kyle Hendricks pitched a "Maddux," defined as a complete-game shutout on fewer than 100 pitches. Against the division rival Cardinals, Hendricks tossed just 81 pitches to complete the 4-0 Cubs win.

In this episode of The Breakdown, presented by CDW, hear from Hendricks, catcher Willson Contreras, pitching coach Tommy Hottovy and associate pitching, catching and strategy coach Mike Borzello as they walk you through the approach before and during the game. They discuss everything from the scouting report to pitch sequencing to how Hendricks has mastered the art of pitch tunneling and how it all came together in this historic performance.

"It was just one of those days where everything fell into place and everything worked. You don't get a lot of those so you really need to relish those moments." -Kyle Hendricks
