ok, so this from my hometown paper.....LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Tuesday night was special for Roger Clemens, who shared a dugout with his son Koby and took his first step toward returning to the Astros.

Clemens tossed three innings for the Lexington Legends, the Astros' Class A affiliate, before a standing-room only crowd of 9,222 at Applebee's Park.

The 43-year old right-hander threw 62 pitches, 41 for strikes, and earned the victory in the Legends' 7-4 win over Lake County, the Class A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians.

He allowed one run on three hits, including a home run, did not walk a batter and had six strikeouts.

"I felt great," Clemens said. "It was a circus atmosphere here. It took some time for me to get locked in. I thank the Lexington fans for coming out. It was a beautiful night. We had a good time with it."
