He expected to be thrown at, and then when he saw the pitch rising, he ducked slightly and I don't think he ever saw where the pitch actually ended up. I think he just assumed it was at his head.

I also know that Clemens is a big an idiot as Pedro is(imo). I'd like to see both of them try their crap in the NL,where they gotta come up to the plate sometime.
Pedro did. Remember he came up thru the Dodgers and Expos systems.

However,the high one that Clemens threw wasn't even tight. I watched the reply several times,and I swear that the pitch was over the plate.

I agree 100%

And a member of the field crew goes into the visiting bullpen and fights?

That goes beyond strange, and right to unbelievable. Unless I'd seen it, I'm not sure I really would believe that a member of the grounds crew would get into an altercation with a player. That's just crazy, even by Yankee/Red Sox standards.
