In~Game thread Roger Clemens vs John Smoltz

[Journeyman]

Its so hard to root against Clemens tonight, when you think about how far this team has come back from, Houston 15 games under, couldn't even score a run on the road for the first month of the season....

And for goodness sake its 2005 and for those that remember the mid 80's could anyone have imagined 20 years later this man would still be at the very top of MLB !!??


That is like imagining Johan Santana still dominating and pitching in the MLB playoffs in 2025! just imagine that, that should put it in perspective

Smoltz alwaya seems to struggle when he gets two strikes on batter and there's runners in scoring position.

Strange, usually a former closer would be good in those types of situations.

I really don't like Smoltz as a starter.

Biggio looks like he's 25 yrs old....HOF material.

#5 hitter laying down a bunt in the 2nd inning?

In 15 away games Clemens has only given up 3 runs or more twice before today. It's nice when the 13% miracle screws me over.

Yeah but he has stuggled on rd (1-4) and Smoltz was 11-1 on home starts
