Anyone wanna see The Rocket pitch? The first part of his rehab will take him through the Lexington Legends clubhouse. His son is playing there now.

I have a friend who just bought the last 4 standing room only tickets + the very last seat in the stadium for Tuesday's game. So I'll get to go to the game!
The stadium only seats about 6,000 but they are expecting over 9,000.

Just for fun I went to eBay and searched for "clemens lexington". Tickets are going for as much as $200!
This is the biggest sports event to hit this town! Even bigger than horses and basketball.

3 innings, 6 K's, 1 hit ... but that one hit was a HR. I'd hate to be the roommate of the guy who hit the homerun.
"Guess what I did tonight. Hit a dinger off the Rocket."

Actually, I think he allowed more hits, but only the one run.

The 25¢ hotdogs were great.

Did you stay for the whole game or did you cut out after the rocket deployed?

I left after Clemens stopped pitching. The group of people I was with left and my grass seats were shit. And bumping elbows in a stadium at 150% capacity was really getting on my last nerve.
