Yahoo! News - AL Jumps on Clemens Early for 9-4 All-Star Win
HOUSTON (Reuters) - The American League jumped on starting National League pitcher Roger Clemens for six runs in the first inning and never looked back as they won 9-4 in the 75th Major League Baseball All-Star game on Tuesday.

The 41-year-old Clemens, making his 10th All-Star appearance and first as a hometown Houston Astro, gave up five hits, including two home runs, and was pulled from the game after the one disastrous inning at Minute Maid Park.

Thanks Roger. Now the Cubs will have to take the Series in four games I guess.
