I think Pujols with all those successful RBI attempts seems to have done better than he would have in the ordinary course even against mediocre pitching. Not saying he would have gone oh-fer or anything. Maybe it was just extraordinary luck or an extraordinary clutch effort, not saying I am sure.
It's also the case I believe that in the 4 game series all his hits were in RBI situations. Oh, I know, small sample size.
