Roger Clemens takes blowtorch to Roy Halladay with PED charge

Roger Clemens still has his fastball.

The legendary Red Sox and Yankees ace didn’t much want to talk about his mild bump in the Hall of Fame voting results unveiled Wednesday — to 45.2 percent of the tally, still well shy of the 75-percent threshold — and focused his brush-back heat on former teammate Roy Halladay. By suggesting Brian McNamee told him Halladay used to pop amphetamines?

Clemens, outed as a steroid and HGH user in the Mitchell Report, was called out by name as a drug cheat in a tweet Halladay posted Wednesday on the eve of the big Cooperstown reveal.
