When promoting the NBC special on 8/3, Hogan did a lot of WWE media. He was on 95.7, the leading sports station in San Francisco, on 8/1. He claimed he was scouted by the New York Yankees and Cincinnati Reds as a baseball player but an injury ended his career. Hogans baseball claims are almost as legendary as his music claims and his shooter claims (he used to claim he fought in Pride when people would bring up MMA). As best we can tell, Hogan did play Little League baseball, and he was a gigantic 12-year-old. He definitely played because he was once on The Tonight show and had a photo. He claimed he led his team to winning the Little League World Series, which is completely untrue, as no team from his area during that era even made the Little League World Series. He claimed he was an all-state pitcher at Robinson High School in Tampa (a number of wrestlers, including Mike Graham, Steve Keirn and Dick Slater were his contemporaries, Graham being a couple of years older). I remember when that was investigated and it came out he never played any sports in high school.
