NEW YORK (Reuters) - Star pitcher Roger Clemens vehemently denied allegations in the Mitchell Report on steroid use in baseball that he used performance-enhancing drugs and is outraged that his name is included in the report, his lawyer said in a statement on Thursday.

"Roger has been repeatedly tested for these substances and he has never tested positive. There has never been one shred of tangible evidence that he ever used these substances and yet he is being slandered today," his attorney Rusty Hardin said.
