He knew what he was getting himself into, the burden of winning was on him, and he couldn't produce.

ARod hit .258/.378/.516. Not the prettiest BA but he was getting on base and getting extra base hits. I wouldn't call an OPS near .900 in a postseason series choking. Overall in 7 postseason series, he's .330/.395/.583. His dropoff in numbers is pretty much in line with a move from a bandbox like Arlington to Yankee Stadium.
