Clemens has his share of detractors. Die-hard Red Sox fans are unlikely to ever forgive his departure, perceived as being inspired by financial greed. Last year's World Series triumph was overshadowed by a bat-throwing incident that sullied his reputation, and he has spent more than his share of time on the disabled list. At age thirty-eight, the Rocket's days in major league baseball are surely numbered, yet he can still overwhelm even the best hitters, who will likely be feeling his power for a while yet.
然而，克萊門斯也遭到到一些責(zé)難。死心眼的紅襪球迷始終不能原諒他的離隊，認(rèn)定他是見錢眼開。去年世界大賽的勝利也因他向擊球手回擲球棒而蒙上陰影，他的名聲也因此遭致玷污；還有他整季因傷所困，長期名列傷兵名單。三十八歲高齡的克萊門斯在大聯(lián)盟的日子已不多了，但他仍足以壓倒最強(qiáng)悍的擊球手。相信他的球威仍能叱吒球場好一段時光。
