In a “60 Minutes” interview that will be shown on CBS on Sunday night, the former Yankees pitcher Roger Clemens admits that he received injections from his former personal trainer, Brian McNamee. But he says that the injections were of the painkiller lidocaine and vitamin B12 — not steroids or human growth hormone, as McNamee alleged in the Mitchell report released last month.
However, Clemens’s version was immediately disputed by McNamee’s lead lawyer, Earl Ward, in a telephone interview Thursday evening. “The only injections he ever gave Clemens were for steroids and human growth hormone,” Ward said of McNamee, adding that he had spoken with his client after Clemens’s CBS comments became public earlier in the day and that McNamee had reiterated his previous allegations.
