Aw, it's time for some father/son bonding *waits for ayrdaomei and owllover711 to howl in outrage*:

Roger Clemens' son took dad deep on the Rocket's first pitch of spring training, crushing a trademark fastball over the left-field fence Monday.

"That was probably one of the harder fastballs I cut loose," Roger Clemens said after throwing to Koby and other Houston Astros minor-leaguers. "He got my attention."

Then the Rocket got Koby's. The next time his oldest son came to the plate, Roger buzzed him high and tight with another fastball. The younger Clemens dodged the pitch, then smiled at his father.

"He was like, 'Sorry about that pitch inside. I was trying to change the view of the ball for you a little bit,'" said Koby, a third baseman who was drafted by Houston last summer. "I said, 'I knew what you were doing.'"

BWAHAHAHA why is this man not back on my team yet? Oh, yeah, I have to wait till May. Dammit.

I'M NOT HOWLING IN OUTRAGE ABOUT THE CLEMENS FAMILY AND THEIR AT-BAT HIJINKS. MYR IS THE ONE WHO IS ALL TRAUMATIZED AND UNFAIRLY JUSTLY BLAMING ME FOR SAID TRAUMA. HOW DID IT ALL GET SO CONFOUNDED???!?

You know what, Jeffrey? That sounds an awful lot like blaming the victim. I didn't ask for any of this to happen.

Um...I apologize. I guess I took that too far. I didn't mean to imply anything like that at all. I'm really sorry. Seriously.

**sniffs** Well, so long as you're really sorry. And not yelling. I'm a fan of not yelling.

if people could just stop using the phrase "took his dad deep", I would really appreciate it.

I choose to take this as yet another sign that it's time for the old man to hang his shit up. Never mind that ERA last season.
