Ahead of Sunday's announcement of the 2026 Baseball Hall of Fame's Contemporary Era Class, President Trump on Saturday called on the committee to admit pitcher Roger Clemens, who is one of eight players on the ballot.
In a lengthy Truth Social post , the president argued that the committee "should do the right thing by finally putting Roger Clemens, known as 'The Rocket,' in the Hall!," adding that Clemens is "clearly one of the Greatest Pitchers of All Time."
The president noted Clemens' 354 career wins, ninth all-time in Major League Baseball history, and his seven Cy Young awards, an annual achievement given out to the best pitchers in the American and National leagues. He also had 4,672 strikeouts, third all-time behind Nolan Ryan (5,714) and Randy Johnson (4,875).
