Like fathom said, that's the first time in 6 attemps Crede has been clutch. Stuck out late in a game two nights ago. Struck out against Jenks with the bases loaded, and also didn't come through in the 8th inning in another game against us.
But it's the single moments that get burned into people's brains that make them form a solid opinion about something or someone. Look at Pods' 2005 Game 2 WS home run for example.
