We Have Lift Off

About 7 pm this evening, Roger Clemens will deliver his 1st pitch for the Tampa Yankees and his push towards joining the big club will be fully underway. ESPN and ESPN-radio will be carrying the game live and YES will be cutting in with reports during the Yankees-Mets game. YES will show Clemens' game in its entirety on Saturday.

Ironically, Clemens' good buddy Andy Pettitte will be on the hill against the Mets.

Hopefully Kei Igawa, who throws for Tampa on Saturday, will pick up some pointers.
