President Donald Trump is making the case for Major League Baseball pitching legend Roger Clemens to be inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame immediately, as he blasted the “rumor” the athlete took performance-enhancing steroids during his stellar career.
Trump played golf with Clemens and his son, Kacy, on Saturday, and Sunday afternoon he said on Truth Social: “Roger Clemens was easily one of the few Greatest Pitchers of All Time, winning 354 Games, the Cy Young Award seven times (A Record, by a lot!), and played in six World Series, winning two!
“He was second to Nolan Ryan in most strike-outs, and he should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame, NOW!

“People think he took drugs, but nothing was proven. He never tested positive, and Roger, from the very beginning, totally denies it. He was just as great before those erroneous charges were leveled at him.
“That rumor has gone on for years, and there has been no evidence whatsoever that he was a ‘druggie.’

“This is going to be like Pete Rose where, after over 4,000 Hits, they wouldn’t put him in the Hall of Fame until I spoke to the Commissioner, and he promised to do so, but it was essentially a promise not kept because he only ‘opened it up’ when Pete died and, even then, he said that Pete Rose only got into the mix because of DEATH.
“We are not going to let that happen in the case of Roger Clemens. 354 Wins – Put him in NOW. He and his great family should not be forced to endure this ‘stupidity’ any longer!”
Clemens is a Trump supporter and active Republican visited the president at the White House earlier this year.

Besides winning being a two-time World Series champion, Clemens is “an 11-time All-Star during a career spanning nearly a quarter-century. He was voted to the MLB All-Century Team and is a member of the Boston Red Sox Hall of Fame,” according to the Spun.
“He is the only eligible member of baseball’s esteemed 300-win club that never got inducted.”
