On the right: Clemens, last year, pitching for Houston.

Clemens announced today (on the owner's box PA between innings) that he'd signed a minor league contract with the Yankees, and could be starting his first game as soon as early June. Roger Clemens is exactly the sort of straight-laced model citizen that baseball needs to compensate for bad people like Barry Bonds who are trying to break records through (unsubstantiated) use of performance-enhancing drugs.
The Giants are playing a three game weekend series against the Yankees in late June (22nd-24th), and I think it would be poetic justice if Bonds ends up hitting number 756 against Clemens. Barry's only 11 homers away, so it's right on his timeline!
unsubstantiated

How about largely unsubstantiated? I was aiming for the "never failed a MLB drug test" defense?
