| Autographed 2012 Sugar Land Skeeters Scorecard Lineup Insert |
Considered one of
the most dominant pitchers in Major League history, Roger Clemens established a
legendary 24-year career from the mound with 354 wins, 4,672 strikeouts and
more Cy Young Awards than any other pitcher in MLB history - seven.
In 2012, the ‘Rocket” came out of retirement and donned the imperial blue uniform of the Sugar Land Skeeters after not pitching professionally for five years.
Clemens thrilled 7,724 Constellation Field fans by taking the mound on August 25, 2012, and pitching 3.1 scoreless innings against Bridgeport while striking out two Bluefish batters.
On September 7, Clemens faced the Long Island Ducks also not allowing a run in 4.2 innings while registering a strikeout in front of 8,597 fans -- which established a home attendance record for the franchise.
On this September date, Clemens also formed a sentimental, father-son battery with his son Koby, who was signed as a catcher with Sugar Land and would play with them through the 2014 season.
