Glad to see we're back on topic, my orifices intact and no blown saves, so to speak.
Since this thread is really devoted to Joe DiMaggio's streak primarily and the random aspects of such streaks occurring, I agee with dlb's observation that clutch must not be defined in such narrow slivers as key AB's in crucial games, but, more correctly as a maintenace of a certain level of production EVEN when pressure seems more intense than other times that are routine.
So as not to hijack the thread into "cluch," I'm opening a new thread on that topic as soon as I reorganize the data I have so far.
It takes this approach to "clutch" so that plate appearances are sufficient enough in number to be statistically relevant.
