Not to make this an anti Yankee thing but growing up all I heard was they were the team with class all those championship years. When in reality they had many steroid guys and others with awful behavior like this. Jim Leyritz for example who killed someone driving drunk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you talking about when Clemens beaned Piazza regular season? I didn't think that got much play outside NY. Until Clemens threw Piazza's sawed off bat at him in the WS months later.

row_33 Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 (edited) Clemens threw at and hit opponents all the time. One of the all time precision right handed flamethrowers to use this tactic. He only threw a broken bat back at one opponent. Clemens called out Barry Bonds for the piece of plastic on his arm, and then hit him on it.

707BillsFan Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 He's from my hometown. Faced him a few times in high school / Babe Ruth ball, looked absolutely stupid in the batters box against him. I always remember when Cardinal Newman came to play, the scouts were there in droves to watch him. Sad to hear, a bit of a shock. If true, he's a ?
