Tony Kemp: Too Legit to Quit.
Tony Kemp, as M.C. Hammer.“Step to the rhythm of a Sho-nuff winner (winner) I been Here before (yo!) I ain’t no beginner....I’m too legit to quit, I’m too legit to quit.”

Question. Who has the highest batting average on the Houston Astros?
OK, that’s too easy. Jose Altuve of course.
Who has the second highest? Hint: not Carlos Correa, not Yuli Gurriel, not Alex Bregman, not George Springer. No, its Tony Kemp, hitting .316.
Ah, but who cares about batting average? As Billy Bean supposedly said, the only thing that matters is on base percentage. So who has the highest on base percentage? Jose Altuve, right? Wrong, Tony Kemp, .391
