ALDS Game 4:

Nothing doing again… they were blown out too quick. This post season clutch count was pretty uneventful and short-lived. How fitting.

ALDS Game 3:

No clutch situations again. Another dismal performance by the entire lineup.

At this Point:
Jeter +2 (0 for 0)
A-Rod 0 (0 for 0)

ALDS Game 2:

No clutch situations again. Nothing good from either of them. Nothing good from anyone but Damon and Matsui.

At this Point:
Jeter +2 (0 for 0)
A-Rod 0 (0 for 0)

After discussing around the tabe, I have given Jeter a +2 for his overall performance, but no change to the clutch ABs.

Sorry, but I have to dispute not giving Jeter at least 2 points for his performance on Tuesday. He willed the team to win. 5 for 5!!! In the post-season, the general criteria do not necessarily apply because pitching is so much better. You have to make the most of opportunities. Jeter hustled 2 singles into doubles. Hit a much needed insurance HR late in the game and started the big double play that got Wang out of trouble. I say +2!

ALDS Game 1:

No clutch defined situations for either player. Jeter went an awesome 5 for 5 with a HR. A-Rod went 1 for 4, but looked good… two more hard hit balls right at someone.
