What Was He Thinking?
There is a major league pitcher who is currently 7-0. His ERA is 1.99. His 52 strikeouts place him second in the National League. Oh, and this pitcher was supposed to be retired!
Clemens claimed in November that there was "no scenario" in which he'd return as a player. He wanted to spend time with his family in Houston.
But then best friend Andy Pettitte signs with Roger's hometown Houston Astros. Clemens get talked out of retirement. And now he's running away with the NL Cy Young Award (it'd be his 7th). Amazing!
