What is this abbreviated garbage? The clips shows you just nine pitches. NINE! I want to see all 76 pitches. Also, the description for the YouTube video says:
7/22/97: Greg Maddux throws a complete game with just 76 pitches against the Cubs, leading the Braves to a 3-2 victory
The final score of the game was 4-1. So whoever wrote the description wasn't paying attention.
Curiously, the TV announcer says Maddux threw 78 pitches. I would guess the TV announcer lost track of the number of pitches, but I can't be sure without watching the full game. (And why does the announcer say "one hit, no runs." That's not correct.)
ESPN.com has a clip of the game, but the description says Maddux threw 77 pitches:

https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1997-jul-23-sp-15312-story.htmlWill we every TRULY know how many pitches Greg Maddux threw during that game? No, not until someone posts footage of the full game.
