Well, then, you haven't seem him lately. It's uncanny how often he comes through with the Giants. He was pretty decent in the World Series against Anaheim: .471 BA and 4 HRs. When it matters most, they walk him. I don't know how many times he has come to the plate when an intentional walk was not possible, and he got a hit, and sometimes a home run. He may have choked in Pittsburgh, but not here.

Call him a jerk, but he's no longer a choker.
