Sandman9000 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 I feel bad for Roger right there in a way. I mean that look on his face was just...disheartening. I always likeed Roger even if I was bitter when he first left Boston and went to NY eventually. His eyes just shot open...looked like he was shaking...I really feel sorry for the guy. Because he realizes his season, his career is over, and he has no one to blame but himself. If he decides he wants to come back, I hope the Yanks tell him to fuck off.

Fökai 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 As much as I may LOATHE Roger Clemens, I want to personally thank him for giving it his all for for the last two decades. I really wanted to see him pitch into the 7th alongside of Pedro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go Red Sox! He''ll be back next year. And besides, Clemens hasn't exactly been the epitome of class. If this is the end for him, i surely don't feel bad.

Guest The Winter Of My Discontent Report post Posted October 17, 2003 Even if the Yanks come back to win this game, they didn't deserve it. The BoSox have outplayed them in every single facet of the game. You can go from starting ptiching, to the bullpen, the defense, and especially offense...Boston dominated in all those areas all series. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Being great doesn't mean he should be brought back. He ditched out on both Boston and Toronto when he didn't want to be there anymore, why should the Yanks have any loyalty to him?

Cartman 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 He was told he sisnt have it anymore and they wouldn't pay him the money he wanted so they parted ways. He landed in Toronto and revived his career by losing weight and concentrating more on being the best pitcher he could be. Then Toronto stupidly traded him to the Yankees because George wanted him badly to get at the Sox. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But he wanted to leave Toronto. because they weren't a Contender I believe... Sugar-coat his legacy all you want, he was a great pitcher, but not exactly a great human being. Another example was the feud with Piazza and throwing the broken bat at him in the World Series. He just isn't high on my pity chart, know whatta mean?

Cartman 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 I always understood Roger walked out on Boston. I am wrong. But he wanted to leave Toronto. because they weren't a Contender I believe... Yup. He wanted the Ring. Which he got, and deserved to a point. He deserved to get a ring because of how great he his but he did it the cheeze way by jumping on to an already great yankee juggernaut. Yes he did help them win it, but I still think THAT yankee team could have done it without him as well. ANYWAYS. Go Red Sox! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Your Paragon of Virtue 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 Quick question; for foul balls on a count that already has two strikes, what do they count it as when they do the pitching breakdown? I ask because I only strikes and balls, but the strike stat could be misleading if that would be the case. I ask because of Walker's ten pitch at bat from the first inning. I've always wondered it anyways. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fökai 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 They count as strikes. If it DIDN'T count as strikes, most pitchers wouldn't have more than 30 strikes on their pitch count in an entire game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HarleyQuinn 0 Report post Posted October 17, 2003 For Paragon, I think it just depends on where the ball placement would've been...like if it was a strike, it gets counted as a strike or maybe since it's a foul ball they just automatically count it as a strike, not sure really...hmm...anybody else got an answer?
