Why Baseball Hall of Fame chair was 'not surprised' Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds struck out again
Baseball legend Roger Clemens calls late Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk a 'sweetheart of a man' and addresses whether athletes should speak out more about politics on 'The Will Cain Show.'
Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds are likely down to their final at-bat when it comes to getting into the Baseball Hall of Fame.
The two missed out on their latest attempt of getting a spot in Cooperstown through the Contemporary Era Committee on Sunday. The 16-member panel voted for former San Francisco Giants and Houston Astros star Jeff Kent to get his place in the hallowed halls.

Baseball Hall of Fame Chair Jane Forbes Clark said Monday she believed Clemens and Bonds were turned down again because the committee members evaluate those who thrived in the Steroid Era in the same manner as baseball writers.
"I'm not surprised because I think there’s overlap and obviously discussions among the writers, and we have writers represented on that committee," Clark said.
Bonds has denied knowingly using performance-enhancing drugs during his career. Clemens maintains he’s never used PEDs either. President Donald Trump also gave Clemens his backing before the committee voted.
