Thought this was a pretty cool story... You can bet that we'll see the young Clemens up very soon...

I wonder what Mike Piazza has to say about this. 
If anyone wonders where the Drysdales and Gibsons of yesteryear went, they need look no further.

Hmmm...I have a feeling dad may have grooved a fastball over the plate? Isn't Koby a catching prospect?Originally posted by Zito75Strikeouts are boring! Besides that, they're fascist. Throw some ground balls - it's more democratic.-Crash DavisComment

That is CLASSIC! I still hope Clemens (the dad) plays another year and signs with the Astros if not only so that this conversation can take place after September call-ups:
(Roger has just given up a homer, and his son has come out to the mound)
Koby: Listen old man, I gave you the signal for changeup, you did the heater, I'm the catcher, you listen to me.
Roger: Screw this, your grounded this offseason.Comment

This isn't, the 1st time a father had to show someone who's boss on the mound.
I once read in the late 50s,White Sox ace Early Wynn made his son hit the deck in the batters box after digging in on him.Comment

what is our problem - that's the first thing i thought tooOriginally posted by SoxSonComment

I'm glad i'm not the only one that thought that as well. Maybe change it to "Koby Clemens shows up dad in sim game" or something like that.Originally posted by bkmckennaComment

How about:
Koby Clemens takes Dad deep; Rocket blasts some Chin Music!
Anyway, re the brushback pitch, Roger said he'd been throwing at him since the father-son games, so Koby knows what's going on. Either that or Roger said he (himself) knows what he's doing. I should've caught that one closer.Last edited by Mattingly; 02-28-2006, 01:22 AM.Please read Baseball Fever Policy and Forum FAQ before posting. 2007-11 CBA

I'm not much of a writer, so my apologies for the lame title.
BTW, I think that Koby is a 3B prospect...?WAR? Prove it!

Yes, third base..
I hope Clemens Dad stays in the game; watching him and Koby in same game. Of course, the preferred situation would be Roger playing for Boston
