10 Things you probably did not know about Hulk Hogan

#3 Scouted by New York Yankees

Pitcher Hogan

While Hogan’s wrestling skills is well known around the world, not many people know how good he was in the baseball diamond. As a teenager, Hogan was a great pitcher and even attracted attention from major teams like the New York Yankees and Cincinnati Red Scouts. His baseball dreams were all set to take off but unfortunately for him, he picked up an injury at the age of 16 which in turn forced him to give up the sport.

Also, during his teenage years, Hogan was a bass guitar player. He used to earn money by performing in clubs and was part of many music bands in Florida. Hogan wanted to play music full-time, but thankfully for the wrestling world, it did not work out well for him and he ended up becoming a wrestler.
