===Los Angeles Dodgers (2006)=== Maddux's second stint with the Chicago Cubs lasted until mid-2006, when he was traded for the first time in his career, to the Los Angeles Dodgers.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2006-07-31 |title=Deadline Dodgers: L.A. gets Maddux, Lugo |url=https://www.espn.com/mlb/news/story?id=2535506 |access-date=2024-08-15 |website=ESPN.com |language=en}}</ref> At the time, the Dodgers were in the thick of a playoff race. In his first Dodger start, Maddux threw six no-hit innings before a rain delay interrupted his debut. In his next start, Maddux needed just 68 pitches to throw eight shutout innings. On August 30, 2006, he won his 330th career game, passing [[Steve Carlton]] to take sole possession of 10th on the all-time list. On September 30, 2006, Maddux pitched seven innings in San Francisco, allowing two runs and three hits in a 4–2 victory over the Giants, clinching a postseason spot for the Dodgers and notching another 15-win season. It was Maddux's 18th season among his league's Top 10 for wins, breaking a record he'd shared with Cy Young and [[Warren Spahn]], who did it 17 times apiece. However, the Dodgers were swept in the first round of the playoffs by the Mets. Maddux started the third and final game, throwing an ineffective no-decision. Maddux was honored with a [[Fielding Bible Award]] as the best fielding pitcher in MLB for 2006.<ref>{{cite web |title=The 2006 Fielding Bible Awards |url=http://www.billjamesonline.net/fieldingbible/the-2006-winners.asp |publisher=The Fielding Bible |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101110080140/http://www.billjamesonline.net/fieldingbible/the-2006-winners.asp |archive-date=November 10, 2010 |access-date=November 18, 2010 |url-status=dead }}</ref>
