If memory serves me correctly, Pat Tabler has highest BA with bases loaded. It is something rediculous, hovering around .800. Now that's clutch hitting.

I forget if it was Bill James, Pete Palmer, or John Thorn who did a study that showed that most hitters do better with 2 outs and men on than with none or 1 out. The thought being that with 2 outs, a batter concentrates harder in order to not end the innning without a those runner scoring.
