Roger Clemens is 50 years old and has not thrown a baseball for a professional team since 2007, but the latter part of that statement will change this weekend as he is set to start for the Sugar Land Skeeters.

The Skeeters are a minor league team in the Houston area that competes in the Atlantic League.

Clemens’ first start will certainly be a fascinating performance to watch. In February of 2008, Clemens was a 45-year-old retired pitcher testifying before Congress that he had never used steroids. In June of 2012, he was a 49-year-old retired pitcher who was acquitted of all charges of obstruction of justice.

At no point in this saga did the sporting world widely suspect that in August of 2012, Clemens would be a 50-year-old active baseball player. Here is how you can watch the Rocket’s comeback.
