The Astros center fielder joins Cesar Cedeno (1972, 1976), Bob Watson (1977), Andujar Cedeno (1992), Jeff Bagwell (2001), Craig Biggio (2002), and Luke Scott (2006) when his eighth-inning double completes the historic accomplishment.

Roger Clemens wins for the 329th time in his career – tying Steve Carlton for ninth on the all-time list

2005 – Roger Clemens wins for the 329th time in his career – tying Steve Carlton for ninth on the all-time list – using his bat as well as his arm. Clemens’ infield hit in the sixth scores two for a 3-2 squeaker over the Reds. Luke Scott and Willy Taveras, two rookies making the jump from AA ball, score runs with Scott pounding a triple for his first major league hit – just 16 behind Clemens on the all-time hit list.
