HOUSTON (AP) ―

Roger Clemens' name is being removed from a sports medicine institute at a Houston hospital in another apparent blow to the legacy of the major league baseball pitcher since he was linked to steroid use.

The Roger Clemens Institute for Sports Medicine at Memorial Hermann will shed Clemens' name effective Jan. 1 "to better reflect its commitment to all sports and athletes," the Houston based health system said.

"The move reflects a desire to promote the broad range of sports medicine services and programs offered by Memorial Hermann across the greater Houston area," Memorial Hermann said. "This change only affects the name of the Institute. Roger Clemens remains committed to working with us to champion youth sports and develop aspiring baseball players."
