Vintage Rocket Bombers Beat Bucs 9-3
Looking to be shaking off some rust in the first few frames, Yankees statrter Roger Clemens made his 2007 MLB debut on Saturday defeating their "long standinging rival" the National League Pittsburgh Pirates 9-3.Clemens threw six iniings for the Yankees, allowing three runs on five and striking out seven, but more importantly he seemed to have gotten stronger as the game progressed. Clemens was originally scheduled in last Monday's contest against the Chicago White Sox , but was scratched due to a groin pull. New York is counting on Clemens heavily, if they want to get into contention for the postseason. Even tough the Yankees have run off five victories in a row, they still sit 10.5 games behind the Boston Red Sox In The American League East.(c) Copyright the sackattack.com 2007
