Poor Familia really deserves better fate than blowing 3 saves in the World Series. The media will try its hardest to paint him as a choke artist despite his amazing season...even though his only proper blown save was in game 1. In games 4 and 5 he came into impossibly difficult situations and got victimized by the Mets' awful infield defense. Rivera wouldn't have gotten out of those jams against this Royals team.
Can just chalk it all up to the save being a completely arbitrary and meaningless statistic really.
