Clemens, 61, appeared in the second inning with two outs and donned a bright yellow jersey. He received a thunderous ovation. But it wasn't a fantastic outing for “The Rocket.” At one point he managed a return to the mound and threw it to first base to end the inning.
However, he allowed a two-run single to start the outing. Then, he gave up a two-run homer to Jason Swan. He allowed five runs in his appearance.
Clemens wasn't the only surprise the Bananas had for Houston fans.

Oswalt entered the game in the sixth inning. He pitched one-third of an inning and allowed one run and three hits.
Clemens and Oswalt, 46, both pitched for the Houston Astros during their careers. Clemens from 2004 to 2006 and Oswalt from 2001 midway through the 2010 season. Oswalt was a three-time All-Star for Houston and Clemens was a two-time All-Star.
Clemens won the Cy Young in 2005 with a 1.87 ERA and 185 strikeouts.
