Found block in pool...

If a miner finds a block, in pool mining, what does that necessarily mean to the person who found it? Is that like carrying the baton past the finish line? Everyone gets credit?

Yep... My 2nd week mining I got an ASICminer Blade, two days and it found a block. This was in November 2013 and it felt somewhat unfortunate...

Pretty much that. Some pools pay a bonus to the one who found the block.
