Report: Clemens' lawyer claims he passed steroid test in '03
Baseball Betting Lines
07/04/2009 -
New York, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Seven-time Cy Young Award winner Roger Clemens
was reportedly not among the 100-plus players who tested positive for
performance-enhancing substances in 2003, when the league conducted an
anonymous drug test throughout the league.
According to a report in the New York Times, Clemens' lead lawyer, Rusty
Hardin, said he acquired the results of the test that found the pitcher to
have tested negative.
While the test results were supposed to remain anonymous, Hardin claimed that
Clemens waived that right and requested the results. Several names have been
leaked from the list, such as current Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez,
who has since admitted his usage of PEDs.
The assertions that Clemens tested negative in 2003 will have no bearing on
his current legal troubles involving former Yankees trainer Brian McNamee. In
the Mitchell Report, which was released in 2007 in an attempt to discover how
prevalent PEDs were in baseball, McNamee claimed he injected Clemens with
several substances from 1998-2001. The trainer did not make any claims about
2003. The supposed negative test result was not entered into evidence as part
of the case.
Clemens has come under much scrutiny for his steadfast denial of PEDs
following his exit from baseball after the 2007 season. Regardless of whether
he used or not, he put up tremendous career statistics, compiling a 354-184
record with a 3.12 earned run average in 24 seasons with Boston, New York,
Toronto and Houston. Clemens currently ranks third all-time with 4,672 career
strikeouts.
