I Knew It All Along
Well, come to find out, even though Trump constantly says he was great at high school baseball and could have gone pro … no. Not even close.
In fact, he was pretty much the kid they picked last for the team.
Slate has managed to unearth nine box scores from Trump’s time at New York Military Academy, which showed a four-for-29 batting record in his sophomore, junior, and senior seasons, with three runs batted in and a single run scored. Trump’s batting average in the nine games Slate found box scores for stood at a disappointing .138.
I don’t know many first basemen with a .138 batting average outside of Little League. We could ask Yuli Gurriel if he knows any.
He also cheats at golf.
