What is Experience?
From the Sun Times:
An ESPN camera Sunday night focused on Greg Maddux talking to Sean Marshall in the Cubs' dugout after Marshall came out with one out in a troubled fifth inning that saw the St. Louis Cardinals recapture the lead 4-3.
Maddux was asked Thursday what he imparted to the rookie, who ended up with a no-decision when the Cubs won 8-4.
"Anytime you see a pitcher screw up, you're like, 'Oh, I did that,''' Maddux said. "You know how you've screwed up in the past. I try to give him and all the guys a heads-up. Experience is screwing up and not screwing up the same way again. That's all experience is.''
I like that: Experience is screwing up and not screwing up the same way again. Plus, considering the source, it's worth paying some attention to.
