Clemens And Boggs |
For some unknown reason, the Red Sox have not retired
Wade Boggs' uniform number 26. And yet, it appears that
they are protecting the uniform number 21 of Roger Clemens—since no one has worn it since his departure in 1996. Now, reportedly,
Rick Porcello was denied number 21 when
he joined the club. So, a guy who is almost universally scorned for suspected PED use is respected more than a guy who bled Red Sox red and already resides in the
Hall Of Fame with a Boston cap. The NOG (New Ownership Group) does a lot of questionable things, but this one is indefensible.
