Denver ? In a matchup of old guys, Roger Clemens tied another of baseball’s Hall of Famers.

Clemens earned his 314th win to pull even with Gaylord Perry for 15th place on the career list, leading the Houston Astros over the Colorado Rockies, 8-5, Saturday.

“It is pretty gratifying when you guys write my name alongside some of the greats that have come through here and played in the past,” Clemens said. “It makes me feel proud, and a lot of those guys I watched and learned about my first couple of years in the league.”

Clemens, who received an ovation when he went to the mound in the first inning and when he left in the sixth, was opposed by Jeff Fassero, who also is 41. It was the first time two starters 41 or older faced each other since California’s Don Sutton (42) pitched against the New York Yankees’ Tommy John (44) on Aug. 24, 1987, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

“Guys have played at this age before and had success at it,” Clemens said. “My body takes a little longer to recover and bounce back than I would like.”

Clemens improved to 4-0 for the second straight season, striking out seven in 52/3 innings.

Giants 5, Dodgers 3

Los Angeles — Jerome Williams pitched 82/3 innings, and Ray Durham hit his 27th career leadoff homer to help San Francisco beat Los Angeles for just its second victory in the last 10 games. Barry Bonds went hitless in one at-bat with three walks in the Giants’ first win over the Dodgers this year.

The Mets lost for the seventh time in nine games and have scored only 12 runs in their last eight games.
