So true, people called Reggie Jackson Mr. October for his clutch HR hitting in the playoffs. Truth of the matter, it's just law of averages coming into the equation of how good of a hitter the guy is at the plate. The higher the average, the better chance he will do something when something of significant circumstance are available.

There is no clutch, if there were they could trun it up on every play and be a perfect player. No clutch performance as there is no mojo, period.

It just sounds good to let it roll off of your tongue.
