Clemens Clean...in '06

Roger Clemens and Andy Pettitte came clean in one instance. Though they were named in a 2006 LA Times article, as being included in Jason Grimsley's affidavit, both Clemens and Pettitte were not included in the affidavit, which was made public yesterday. Brian Roberts and Jay Gibbons, also both in the Mitchell Report, were also erroneously mentioned by the paper. The newspaper is to run a retraction and apology in today's edition.

Sammy Sosa, Pete Incaviglia, Geronimo Berroa, and Allen Watson were not named in the Mitchell Report, but were included in Grimsley's tale of cheat.

In the case of Sosa, Miguel Tejada, and Rafael Palmeiro, their mention came from a conversation they had with Grimsley while all were with the Orioles in 2005. The four wondered how they were going to play the next season with the banning of amphetamines.

The affidavit also listed José Canseco, Lenny Dykstra, Glenallen Hill, and David Segui, all of whom were in the Mitchell Report.
