The braves had a pitcher in the 90s with the weirdo mental yips like the Cubs pitcher has. Except instead of first base, it was during intentional walks.

Can't remember his name, but he'd throw it 8 feet over catchers glove into net above back stop. On intentional walks.



I think it was Mark Wohlers. Hell of a closer that was never the same after giving up that homer to Leyritz in game 4 of the 96 World Series. That shite was heartbreaking.

Smoltz had to go to a sports psychologist early in his career. I remember that being a big news story.

That's him. Good call.


Probably the most cruel thing to witness in all of sports. Seems to mostly affect pitchers and golfers. I don't even like to think about it.
