Before he became an international music star, Daddy Yankee was a real-deal baseball player until one bullet changed everything.
The reggaeton king was out in NYC and told TMZ Sports he had a shot with the Seattle Mariners back in the day when he played 2nd and 3rd base.
Unfortunately Yankee was shot in the hip during the peak of his baseball career and had to abandon his MLB dreams. Fortunately, things worked out and he became a megastar in the music business.
Yankee’s not bitter about it even though the bullet is still lodged in his hip which can be a pain in the ass in airports.
