When it comes to Roger Clemens, I have to be optimistic.

It's worked before between Pedro [Martinez] and Schilling, and I pitched behind Roger [Clemens] when Roger was here. I like the philosophy.

When you go against a guy like Greg Maddux or a Roger Clemens, I don't care if it's a regular season game, is a guy with that kind of command and if he starts getting an edge he pushes and pushes it so it's up to whoever the umpire is,

Tip your to hat to Roger Clemens. You could tell he was ouchy there, and we didn't get anything off him.

You take your hat off to Roger Clemens. You could tell he was ouchy there a little bit.

You hear about Roger Clemens being a warrior. That's what he is.
