There's a problem with the two recent posts on clutch hitting: much of it is based on incomplete data.
Clutch stats: Ruth, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Mantle ... LeMahieu. Tuesday, June 11, 2019 4:21 PM
Clutch stats: Williams, Mays, Aaron, Bonds. Tuesday, June 11, 2019 4:51 PM
In the matrix below career stats for LeMahieu were used. In the post above, only his 2019 stats so far were used. The career plate appearances (PA) for both LeMahieu and Bonds match their total of clutch PA for the sum of Tied, Ahead, Behind. Mantle is the next closest, with less than one percent fewer clutch PA.
Ruth played the longest time ago and his clutch PA are about 52% fewer than his career PA.
