This idiocy yet again?

We've been over this and over this. There has been study after study. IF clutch hitting exists, the effect is about .001 on someone's BA. If it were any higher, then it would show up when statisticians and mathematicians (and especially Bill James) went looking for it - and guess what, it never, ever has.

Keep believing your cherished silly myths, guys. Oh, look, there's Elvis at the 7-11 buying a donut!
