Clemens asked to leave after arguing call

/ Associated Press

Posted: 22 minutes ago

Houston Astros pitcher Roger Clemens was asked to leave a youth baseball game over the weekend for arguing a close call that went against his son's team.

Clemens was at the game Saturday watching his son, Kacy, compete in a 10-and-under game organized by Triple Crown Sports when Clemens contested a call at second base that went against the Katy Cowboys.

He spit sunflower seeds at an umpire's leg and was asked to leave, said Jim Carpenter, a field supervisor with Triple Crown.

"I supported the umpire's decision and he (Clemens) respectfully left," Carpenter told the Craig Daily Press.

Katy lost the game to the Bakersfield Curve, 11-5.

Triple Crown Sports features a franchise system aimed at pitting top teams from across the country against each other.

Clemens' agent, Randall Hendricks, did not immediately return a call Monday. Clemens has racked up 322 wins and 4,240 strikeouts in his 21-year major league career.

I heard on the radio that it wasn't nearly as bad as first reported.

He did go onto the field of play and spit seeds on an umpire in a 10 and under game. This isnt gamboa type stuff but it is pretty bad. I certainly would not go onto the field during one of my son's games and spit a seed on an umpire.

He wasn't a coach.  He now says he never went on the field and that he must be a seed spitting champ to hit the ump from off the field. I think their is a little coverup going on but who cares. Story is over.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Last I checked the scoreboard doesn't have a spot for current bank balance on it.
