WASHINGTON - Four-time all-star Chuck Knoblauch was subpoenaed Tuesday by a U. Authentic Greg Jennings Jersey.S. congressional committee investigating steroids in baseball after he failed to respond to an invitation to give a deposition. Knoblauch, who played for the Yankees, Twins and Royals, was asked to appear Thursday, the first of five depositions or transcribed interviews scheduled by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee prior to its Feb. 13 hearing. Roger Clemens is scheduled to speak to committee staff Saturday, followed by Yankees pitcher Andy Pettitte on Jan. 30. Brian McNamee, a former personal trainer for Clemens and Pettitte, is due in Jan. 31, with former New York Mets clubhouse employee Kirk Radomski to appear Feb. 1. They all had until close of business Tuesday to respond to their invitations; Knoblauchs deadline was last Friday, because his deposition was scheduled first. "The committee has taken this step because Mr. Knoblauch failed to respond to the invitation to participate voluntarily in a deposition or transcribed interview and the Feb. 13 hearing," committee chairman Henry Waxman and ranking Republican Tom Davis said in a statement. It has not been clear whether Knoblauch has retained a lawyer to represent him.
