Okay, I voted for baseball. However, the one year I wrestled was a bitch. Training for wrestling was more rigorous than any of the other sports.

In high school I played most of these sports and baseball was the one I had the least amount of success in:

Football - 3 years (7 years total from age 10 to 17)
Baseball 2 years (1 year on High School team - 1 year Legion ball--Played off and on from age 6 to age 18))
Wrestling - 1 year in high school.
Soccer - 2 years Club soccer (and on s touring team--played 8 years total from age 8 to 16)
Tennis - 3 years in high school (started at age 5 or 6 with lessons -- played 4 years D3 college, taught for 2 years)
Rugby - 2 years on a Club team in college.
Basketball -- Never played in high school, made it to last cut both freshman and sophomore years. (played in city league from around age 9 until 11, played on Jr High team from 11-14, 4 years of IM ball in college)
Track (Shot put & discus) - 1 year in high school.

I've also Golfed for about 10 years recreationally.

On a side note, I practiced with the women's softball team for 3 years in college because they started practicing before we did in tennis and one on my professors was the coach. They needed extra catchers (I was a catcher in baseball) to help get the team ready for the season and I wanted to get a jump on conditioning for the tennis season, so we were helping each other out. But trying to hit a fast pitch softball from 45 feet!! That's near impossible!

So there's my 2 cents. Take it for what it's worth.
