If you catch or pick the ball and throw it to the player who is awarded the put-out, you area awarded an assist. That means that just about every ground out is scored with an assist.

There is no such thing as a stupid question, just a question that an individual has yet to ask. But I'm giving you a number of links that will help you with other basic information.

I don't recall people making that big of a deal when Clemens signed with the Astros.?

An assist is made by a fielder who participates in a play that gets a batter or runner out, but does not make the actual putout himself. Example: a groundball to the shortstop, who scoops up the ball and throws the batter out at first base. The first baseman gets the putout, the shortstop gets an assist.
