96 pitches after 5 innings. I'd be surprised if he came out for the 6th. If he leaves now he is 0-0 with a 5.40 ERA 3 R 3 ER 0 HR and 5 K's.

I used to throw a knuckle-curve. It was my favorite pitch. For whatever reason, I never found it very difficult to throw. Didn't Wade Miller used to sport a knuckle curve in his astros days?

Yanks won 9-3. Did Houston ever score 9 runs for Clemens in 1 game?
View ArticleRe: Clemens 1st start back vs. Pittsburgh
Nope. We never scored 9 runs for Clemens. In fact we never scored any runs for him at all. THAT'S why he wanted to play one more season for someone else. Someone else that could score runs for him. He...
