Do you really think the closer who pissed the game away walked off the mound feeling like he hadn't choked?

Collapsing at the end of the game and losing a one run lead are not even remotely close to the same thing. To suggest so is laughable. As I said earlier, the score was 1-0 and the game could not have been tighter unless it was tied. Anyone watching the game knew it could still go either way. This is baseball...if the other team scores to tie it you sure as hell did not "choke". Under your definition basically every team that loses on a given day "choked". That is not the way it is.
Pretty basic actually.
