Timeline

1880

He is of German descent, his great-grandfather Joseph Clemens having immigrated in the 1880s.

Clemens's parents separated when he was an infant.

His mother soon married Woody Booher, whom Clemens considers his father.

Booher died when Clemens was nine years old, and Clemens has said that the only time he ever felt envious of other players was when he saw them in the clubhouse with their fathers.

1962

William Roger Clemens (born August 4, 1962), nicknamed "Rocket", is an American former professional baseball pitcher who played 24 seasons in Major League Baseball (MLB), most notably with the Boston Red Sox, Toronto Blue Jays, and New York Yankees.

He was one of the most dominant pitchers in major league history, tallying 354 wins, a 3.12 earned run average (ERA), and 4,672 strikeouts, the third-most all time.

An 11-time MLB All-Star and two-time World Series champion, Clemens won seven Cy Young Awards, more than any other pitcher in history.

Clemens was known for his fierce competitive nature and hard-throwing pitching style, which he used to intimidate batters.

1977

Clemens lived in Vandalia, Ohio, until 1977, and then spent most of his high school years in Houston, Texas.

At Spring Woods High School, Clemens played baseball for longtime head coach Charles Maiorana and also played football and basketball.

He was scouted by the Philadelphia Phillies and Minnesota Twins during his senior year, but opted to go to college.

1981

He began his college career pitching for San Jacinto College North in 1981, where he posted a 9–2 win–loss record.

The New York Mets selected Clemens in the 12th round of the 1981 Major League Baseball draft, however, he did not sign.

1983

He then attended the University of Texas at Austin, compiling a 25–7 record in two All-American seasons, and was on the mound when the Longhorns won the 1983 College World Series.

He became the first player to have his baseball uniform number retired at the University of Texas.

Clemens was selected in the first round (19th overall) of the 1983 MLB draft by the Boston Red Sox and quickly rose through the minor league system.

In 1983, Clemens pitched for two different teams in two different leagues and at two different levels.

He pitched for the A-ball Winter Haven Red Sox of the Florida State League and the AA New Britain Red Sox of the Eastern League.

Clemens started all four games he played with Winter Haven and pitched three complete games with one shutout and allowed no home runs.

He posted a 3–1 win–loss record, a 1.24 earned run average, struck out 36 batters in 29 innings pitched and his walks plus hits per inning pitched was 0.759.

1984

Clemens debuted in the MLB in 1984 with the Red Sox, whose pitching staff he anchored for 12 years.

1986

In 1986, he won the American League (AL) Cy Young Award, the AL Most Valuable Player (MVP) Award, and the All-Star Game MVP Award, and he struck out an MLB-record 20 batters in a single game.

1996

After the 1996 season, in which he achieved his second 20-strikeout performance, Clemens left Boston via free agency and joined the Toronto Blue Jays.

In each of his two seasons with Toronto, Clemens won a Cy Young Award, as well as the pitching triple crown by leading the league in wins, ERA, and strikeouts.

1999

Before the 1999 season, Clemens was traded to the Yankees where he won his two World Series titles.

2001

In 2001, Clemens became the first pitcher in major league history to start a season with a win–loss record of 20–1.

At Texas, Clemens pitched 35 consecutive scoreless innings, an NCAA record that stood until Justin Pope broke it in 2001.

2003

In 2003, he reached his 300th win and 4,000th strikeout in the same game.

2004

Clemens left for the Houston Astros in 2004, where he spent three seasons and won his seventh Cy Young Award.

In 2004, the Rotary Smith Award, given to America's best college baseball player, was changed to the Roger Clemens Award, honoring the best pitcher.

2007

He rejoined the Yankees in 2007 for one last season before retiring.

He is the only pitcher in Major League history to record more than 350 wins and strike out more than 4,500 batters.

Clemens was alleged by the Mitchell Report to have used anabolic steroids during his late career, mainly based on testimony given by his former trainer, Brian McNamee.

Clemens denied these allegations under oath before the United States Congress, leading congressional leaders to refer his case to the Justice Department on suspicions of perjury.

2010

On August 19, 2010, a federal grand jury at the U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., indicted Clemens on six felony counts involving perjury, false statements, and contempt of Congress.

Clemens pleaded not guilty, but proceedings were complicated by prosecutorial misconduct, leading to a mistrial.

2012

In June 2012, Clemens was found not guilty on all six counts of lying to Congress.

These controversies hurt his chances for election to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

He never received the 75% of votes required in his ten years of eligibility, ending with 65.2% in 2022.

Clemens was born in Dayton, Ohio, the fifth child of Bill and Bess (Lee) Clemens.
