Despite the drama that has surrounded Roger Clemens over the past decade, "The Rocket" will be remembered as one of the most accomplished pitchers in MLB history. Roger's unprecedented 7 Cy Young Awards and 354 career wins, 9th most all-time, are even more impressive considering his 4,672 strikeouts, placing him third on the all-time list. Indeed, his career body of work reads more like the legendary hurlers of the dead-ball era than the tempered numbers posted by his contemporaries. In only his second season, on the verge of become the dominant force in the American League, Clemens wore this size 46 Wilson gamer for the Boston Red Sox. An "85" team swatch appears on the front left tail to verify the year, and heavy staining is apparent throughout, the result of clay, tobacco, or knowing the ornery Clemens, dried blood. The number "21" is double twill stitched on the reverse in red and blue thread. A significant gamer that carries a lot of Boston Red Sox history! LOA from Mile High Card Company.
