Audience Q&A: Roger Clemens 

Roger Clemens deserves to be in Cooperstown no matter if you think he cheated or not. He’s better than Schilling, Ryan, Pedro, Seaver, all those guys. He’s the best right handed pitcher of all time in my opinion. 11x All Star, 7 time Cy Young Award Winner, 2x Triple Crown, AL MVP, 7x ERA leader, 5x Strikeout leader!!! 354 wins, 184 loses, career era of 3.12, 4,672 career strikeouts,as a 2x World Series champion, a not bad 3.75 career era in the postseason, and a career WAR of 139.2......Those are Hall of Fame stats.

Roger Clemens is a true gentleman and a class act !loved it when he signed the kid’s baseball and tee shirt .. that kid will never forget that

Such a great competitor, it’s crazy they haven’t put him in the Hall of Fame, such a shame.... This is my first time seeing him in an interview setting, he seems really cool too!!!🙏🏽👍🏽

Clemens was nasty. Loved seeing him in Boston.

That was one of the best sports interviews I've ever seen.

Watching Clemens as a kid on TV was amazing. This guy was unbelievable and belongs with all the baseball greats in the HALL OF FAME!

That kid got nicknamed by Roger Clemens. Thats a life moment. Go for it Ace.

Hands down one of the best to do it on the field he did alot of great things on the field but I just recently spent a week working for him and he is one of the most down to earth people I have ever met he should be hof for the things he did in his career but what's even more impressive is what he does off the field with all the charity work he does and all the people who he has helped that have been injured everyone from ballplayers to the men and women who stand on a street corner more sports athletes could learn something from Rc one of the greatest on and off the field

Notice he said "Greg Maddux!"

Great Q & A and to hear Clemens up-front on stuff. He did impress me with this, even though I am a huge Maddux fan!

Roger Clemens the perfect combination of "Game Face" and Gentleman!

Just for the intensity he brought and his attitude about pitching he belongs in.

He should be in the HOF . Best Right Hand Starting Pitcher of All Time . Loved hearing his insight into the game

Wonderful interview! I really liked the inside scoop on the stuff he was doing to call pitches,because you don't see that awesome part of the game on tv...I love you,Rocket!!

This was a great interview.

I’m a Mets fan. This guy was the best in his era. Should be in the HoF.

Roger. I watched you from Texas to Houston. Every game. Even back in Boston when NESN was just a computer display channel with stats. Thank you for being a gentleman and the biggest competitor

Outside some of my Cardinals favorites -- Nolan Ryan and Roger Clemens are my two favorite pitchers. Living not far from Chicago, whenever Nolan or the Rocket would pitch against the White Sox we always tried to make it to the ballpark in the late 1980s and early 90s. Another special memory, when the favorite player of the adult part of my life, Scott Rolen, took Clemens deep to help the Cardinals win Game 7 of the 2004 NLCS. Unfortunately, the Red Sox were a freight train and the Birds had no chance in the World Series.

What a great window to The Rocket's world of competition, confidence & love for the game. I was at that WS game where he shattered Piazza's bat & watched Roger shutout the Mets for 8 innings,giving up only 2 hits & striking out 9. The Rocket was "nasty"

Roger Clemens is legendary. Definitely belongs in the HOF regardless of his critics and who opposes his induction into the hall.

I’ll never forget seeing him pitch as Fenway in 1990 as a 10 year old.

My favorite pitcher ever. Should be HOF

🐐

Amazing competitor! Really appreciate him sharing the compliment from Yogi Berra!

The Hall of Fame needs Bonds and Clemens more than they need the Hall of Fame. The two greatest players of the past 50 years are Bonds and Clemens. Maybe Maddux or Mike Trout (soon) could enter the conversation, but for now Bonds and Clemens are the best since Mays and Koufax.

Awesome interview and Q and A....Roger is very well spoken...The only thing I never liked about him is that he never played for my Beloved Cubs....

It's an absolute joke this guy isn't in the Hall....a complete joke. 80% of baseball fans think he should be in. Reasons why its absurd to keep him out: 1) statistically speaking....he's had the best pitching career in live ball era history...and it's not really arguable. 2) he was not only a HOFer before the alleged steroid use, but an inner sanctum top 5 pitcher ever. His prime of age 23 to 35 was unreal and probably the best 3300 innings or so ever pitched. 3) the moral arguement. Clemens allegedly used during a time when virtually no one cared about steroids. There was no testing and there was no stigma. It's simply human nature to use an advantage that had absolutely no down side or deterrence. The idea among sportswriters that steroid use = no HOF, simply did not exsist in the late 90s or early 00s, and retroactively applying that standard upon him is nonsense. 4) harold baines, phil rizzuto and countless other players being in the Hall when the best pitcher of the live ball era, and the HR king ( Barry Bonds) aren't makes the Hall look like a joke.

Love the Rocket

Clemens should be in the HOF. No question. But he needs to come clean. It's borderline psychopathic continuing this charade while people cluelessly defend him like the guy at 4:35. We went through the same thing with Lance, McGwire, Marion Jones, Sosa, etc.

That watch is so dope.

What says it all is hardly any views in over a year...still Clemens should be in Hall.

Roger Clemens belongs in the Hall of Fame. The key word is fame.

Audience member: "in your travels which parts of the USA stuck out to you as highlights?" Roger: Scotland and Japan were nice

He's incorrect about Maddux. Maddux for the first 12 or so years hit 92-94 on his fastball. Maybe he's referring to his post atlanta career.

Wait, so Roger never tested positive for steroids, he was accused by someone? Can someone confirm this?

The Rocket!!

The HOF needs Rocket in it. Juice or no juice he was one of the most dominate pitchers to ever play. I'll also say the same for Bonds.

Almost six minutes into the Q and A it would appear that Roger never answered the woman’s question, as if he didn’t really understand what she was asking.

this guy baseball's iq. through the roof. very cool.

I thought Roger was eating a bag a chips with the audio

He was a PITCHER! What would Gibson do?

This is one of the finest pitchers of all time. It isn't a proper HOF if Roger Clemens isn't in it.

There is only QUESTION. What was real beef with Piazza? That was deeper than baseball

Clemens is a Hall of Famer in most, if not all, professional baseball fans minds. The interviewer needs to be quiet by interrupting the answers and/or trying to finish Mr. Clemens statements.

I listened to Mike Piazza just a while ago. And the biggest differences between him and this egomaniac being interviewed ...class, humility, and authenticity!

This is the thing I don't get.....if he needed steroids so much to succeed then why did he win a Cy Young and have an under 2 ERA with testing in place when he was 41 and 42 years old. If he did do what McNamee said, and I think he did...I dont think steroids helps pitchers all that much.....its more for hitters.

If he had only come clean, he would be in the HOF...Same thing with Pete Rose..

That first guy was never gonna shut up

He is a big as a HOUSE!

Roger Clemens for president

Failure to deny. He’s using the Armstrong defense of “I’ve never tested positive.”

He looks like mexican jp morgan

wish evan smith would stop interrupting during the q and a. he served only as an unwanted distraction

No one asked him piazza? Lol

Baseball still sad.

Nobody gets better at sports after 35

None of the kids said "Thank you" - not one. My parents would have made me give the signature back for so much disrespect and discourteous behavior. USA ain't what it used to be. Sadly.

Rog, lay off the hot dogs and fries.

JUICE, what's up, you Roid King, you?

Only 6000 people who have played professional baseball. I doubt that number. I can see for the American and National League combined, but not including the minors.

What about dating his daughters friend wow he was married and she was under age? Why nobody ever talks about that? White privilege.

C'mon guys. I met Roger in the flesh. He was on 'roids. But then again, nearly all the main players back in that era were.

Roger was the epitome of a Power Pitcher. His downfalls: becoming a traitor by going from the Sox to the Yankees, and juicing.

As a Yankees fan - you know who is in the Hall of Fame ? Mike Piazza. You know who is not ? Roger lemons. If roger lemons did not do steroids - would he be considered for the Hall of Fame ??? Probably not.

I thought he was a Hall of Fame pitcher but he blew it when PED drugs came into his picture. He did not have to do it but his mistake has cost him Cooperstown.

🤮 pushing his wife company

He will never see the hall !

Cheater

He was on the jucie/ come on man !!
