Clemens, Bonds, Tejada named in Mitchell Report

NEW YORK - Roger Clemens, Miguel Tejada and Andy Pettitte were named in the long-awaited Mitchell Report today, an all-star roster linked to steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs that put a question mark - if not an asterisk - next to some of baseball's biggest moments.

NEW YORK - Roger Clemens, Miguel Tejada and Andy Pettitte were named in the long-awaited Mitchell Report today, an all-star roster linked to steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs that put a question mark - if not an asterisk - next to some of baseball's biggest moments.

Barry Bonds, already under indictment on charges of lying to a federal grand jury about steroids, also showed up in baseball's most infamous lineup since the Black Sox scandal.

The report culminated a 20-month investigation by former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, hired by commissioner Bud Selig to examine the Steroids Era.

It was uncertain whether the report would result in any penalties or suspensions.

Several stars named in the report could pay the price in Cooperstown, much the way Mark McGwire was kept out of the Hall of Fame this year merely because of steroids suspicion.
