I'm interested in how you would do #2. I'm often too being educated.

(3) have current studies using real baseball data proven that a clutch hitting skill does not exist? The answer, I think, is no, in part because of what #2 shows. Current studies also fail because they are poorly designed.
I am most interested in #2 and #3. The importance of #2 is that it shows something can exist without generating statistical evidence of its existence. Simple empiricism (only things that have empirical evidence for them exist) does not always hold.
