Joe Mauer owns a lifetime .312 batting average and his sweet stroke goes all the way back to his childhood.
Major League Baseball posted an incredible video of the Minnesota Twins first baseman showing off his hitting chops as a 2-year-old on Monday and the kid looks pretty good.
Mauer, a former American League MVP, sits second on the Twins with a .286 average, behind only Eduardo Nunez.
