 CHICAGO (AP) - Roger Clemens still hopes to make his 2007 Yankees debut against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday after an MRI exam showed he had a scar tissue injury in his right groin.
Clemens had originally planned to start Monday night at the Chicago White Sox. He scratched himself from the outing on Saturday because of what the Yankees said then was a fatigued groin, an injury that he first felt during a minor league outing May 28.
"We knew (the MRI) wasn't going to show anything," manager Joe Torre said. "He's had previous problems there. Just the fact that there was old scar tissue leads us to believe he'll pitch Saturday."
