WASHINGTON -- Ex-baseball star Roger Clemens says prosecutors should have to pay his lawyers fees for a mistrial this summer on charges he lied about using performance-enhancing drugs. The trial in Washington federal court ended on the sixth day after prosecutors showed jurors inadmissible evidence. U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton has scheduled another trial for April, but invited Clemens to request the government pay his expenses for the first attempt. Walton said it would be unfair for Clemens to have to pay for the prosecutions mistake. Walton said he wasnt sure he has authority to order reimbursement, but hed look at the law if Clemens requested it. Clemens motion filed Tuesday did not say how much his team of high-powered lawyers charged, but Walton noted "obviously thats not going to come cheap." Wholesale Jerseys from china . 1.

Valerie GrandMaison of Fleurimont, Que., and Calgarys Brianna Nelson each won their second silver medals of the Games at the pool, while wheelchair sprinter Brent Lakatos of Dorval, Que., also won silver in the 400 metres Sunday. Eight of Canadas first 11 medals have come from swimmers and the remaining three from track and field. GrandMaison was an arm swing away from gold in her signature event, the 100-metre freestyle. For the second time in as many days, she was narrowly beaten for the top step on the podium by Kelley Becherer of the U.S. GrandMaison had finished second to the American in the 50-freestyle the previous day. "Im going to be emotional for the next few hours," GrandMaison said. "It was a close one. I race Kelly, the American, all the time. Its always a close finish. Its always be a few tenths or a few hundredths. Shes a way better sprinter than I am, so her first half is really strong compared to mine. "Tonight, I tried to stay with her because I wanted it so bad. I tried my best and I was with her at the 50. I knew it my time to shine. I just didnt have it in me." Canadas objective in London is a top-eight finish in gold medals won. Canada had three gold after five days, tied for 13th with Iran and South Korea. GrandMaison, who is visually impaired, was Canadas most successful swimmer at the 2008 Paralympics in Beijing with three gold medals and a bronze. She set a world record in the 100 freestyle there, but a shoulder injury in 2011 almost ended her career. "A year ago I would never thought I would have been to that level of fitness right now," the 23-year-old said. "The way we turned the program around. My strength and conditioning program, working with a sports psychologist, physio, I did everything I had to do and I have no pain right now. I love racing again." Nelson, who has cerebral palsy, was second to Jaqueline Freney of Australia the womens 200 individual medley, two days after taking silver behind the Aussie in the 50-metre butterfly. "This is my second Games. I wanted to be somebody here," said Nelson, 20. "In Beijing, I was there to have fun. I wanted to be ferocious this time. Im feeling ferocious." GrandMaison races the 200 I.M. and 100-metre breaststroke later this week. "Its not over," she declared. "Im going to fight harder. In the last four years, Ive gone through a lot of challenges and right now, its just one more challenge that I have to overcome and it will make me stronger in four days when I race again, when I show up on that pool deck again, fierce, mean and ready to show what Ive got, finally." Lakatos wheeled to silver in the mens T54, or paraplegic, classification. The 32-year-olds time off 50.dddddddddddd17 was second to the 49.70 posted by Chinas Li Huzhao. Lakatos was paralysed in a hockey accident at the age of six. The Canadian lives and trains in Dallas, Texas and is married to Stephanie Reid, an amputee who won bronze in the 200 metres for Canada in 2008. Shes representing host Britain at these Games and won silver in the long jump Sunday. "Its great to have her to share it with," Lakatos said. "Its really special. "The bet was whoever wins gold doesnt have to do the dishes." Lakatos said he encouraged his wife, who has a Scottish father and an English mother, to join the British team for 2012. "I was actually kind of pushing her in that direction," he said. "I thought it would be a good decision for her. "The training environment, the coaching, the high performance centres, everything. Its a great place for her to be where she can receive the best training and get her in the best shape she can to have the best result." In other swim finals Sunday, Sarah Mehain of Vernon, B.C., was fifth behind teammate Nelson in the individual medley. Vancouvers Donovan Tildesley placed seventh in the mens 100-breastroke in a visually impaired classification. Winnipegs Rhea Schmidt was eighth in GrandMaisons event, the 100 freestyle. Calgarys Morgan Bird was also eighth in the womens 50-metre freestyle. Also at the track, wheelchair racer Diane Roy of Sherbrooke, Que., was disappointed in her ninth-place finish in the womens 5,000 metres. Shed initially won gold in the distance in Beijing only to have to re-race it because of a protest. Roy was then second in the re-race. Teammate Keira-Lyn Frie of Saskatoon was fourth Sunday. Bo Hedges of Wonowon, B.C., scored 24 points in a 73-66 win over Germany in mens wheelchair basketball. Unbeaten in four games, the Canadian men clinched first place in their pool. The womens team improved to 2-1 with a 65-61 victory against Brazil. Vancouvers Janet McLachlan led the Canadians with 36 points and 23 rebounds. The Canadian women will play in the quarter-finals. Canada won its first game in womens goalball, with Amy Kneebone of Charlottetown scoring twice in a 3-1 victory over Sweden. The mens team fell 8-6 to Algeria. Robbi Weldon of Thunder Bay, Ont., and pilot Lyne Bessette of Knowlton, Ont., were seventh in track cycling in the individual pursuit for visually impaired Joan Reid of Enderby, B.C., was sixth in single sculls for rowers who have only the use of their arms and shoulders.
