retire from baseball as a pitcher.

It's the fear of rejection.

Passion Struck with John R. Miles
Inner Excellence: How to Build Inner Stability Under Pressure | Jim Murphy โ€“ EP 721

And you're going to feel, you could feel, wow, I'm a pro golfer and I missed a three foot putt.

Pro golfers shouldn't miss three foot putts.
