In 1946 Maddern was leading the Texas League in hitting with the Tulsa Oilers before being called up by the parent Cubs. He also was a stalwart in the postwar Pacific Coast League as a star for the Los Angeles Angels and a member of four other PCL clubs. The biggest moment in his career came the night of September 29, 1947, before a sellout crowd in Wrigley Field. The Angels and the San Francisco Seals had finished in a dead heat for the PCL pennant and met in a one-game playoff. The game was a scoreless tie until Maddern broke it up with a grand slam home run in the eighth inning to give the Angels a 5-0 win over the Seals.〔(A Game I'll Never Forget: Los Angeles Defeats San Francisco in 1947 Playoff Game ), Al Parnis, at Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) web site, retrieved 2013-01-25.〕
Maddern left baseball in 1957, returned to Bisbee and became an insurance agent.〔 He is buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Bisbee, Arizona〔
