Roger Clemens pitched 3 1/3 scoreless innings for the Sugar Land Skeeters of the Independent League on Saturday, his first appearance in five years.

"No," Clemens said when the subject of a Major League comeback was brought up. "I've had success before at that level and other things. Again, it's a great deal of work and I'm not thinking that at this point."

The 50-year-old faced the Bridgeport Bluefish and struck out two, while allowing one hit without a walk on 37 pitches.

Scouts from the Astros and Royals were on hand.
