Clemens struggles in Fenway debut five runs in five innings
Roger Clemens opened 1995 with a rough first start at Fenway Park. He yielded five runs in five innings, three batters hit, as Seattle built a 5-2 lead over Boston. He threw 84 pitches, fanned four, and walked one, ending a rocky outing in which Seattle capitalized in the fifth inning. The situation marked his worst start since mid-1994, yet past results suggested a strong rebound potential.
