Garth Brooks: Wife Trisha Yearwood is 'Boss' - 'Man Against Machine' Country Superstar Also Played Pro Baseball! [WATCH]

Garth Brooks's wife Trisha Yearwood is definitely the 'boss' of their family, the country superstar told Jimmy Kimmel Live last night. But the singer — who just released his first album in 13 years called Man Against Machine — also revealed that his wife is just "one of the guys" while on tour... before explaing how he played professional baseball!

While father of three Brooks has sold over 134 million albums — putting him behind only The Beatles and Elvis Presley for the most all-time — it turns out his wife, fellow country superstar Trisha Yearwood, is the boss in their relationship. "Yeah!", the singer laughed when asked by Kimmel. "You had dinner with us, would you consider her [the boss]?" he grinned.

He also revealed that even his band "stands up a little straighter" when she's on stage, "but on the bus, or on the plane," Yearwood is "one of the guys." So much so, he says, "She's one of the guys more than the guys are!"

The singer, who recently returned from retirement with the No. 1 album Man Against Machine also said that Yearwood is "every guy's dream."

"You can take her to an award show," he gushed, "and everyone will gasp at how beautiful she is, how sweet she is... then on the bus with the guys at night she likes sports, can talk more trash than the guys!"

Watch Brooks talk about his lovely wife — as well as his specialty 'breakfast bowl' (the secret is tortellini to make it "the bomb") — in the clip below.

But could Brooks have foregone a career in music for one on the baseball diamond? As Kimmel points out, Brooks signed a minor league contract with the San Diego Padres, and played with the New York Mets and Kansas City Royals as well.

Calling it "the most fun thing, the most scary thing I've ever done," he pointed out, though, that playing music is a lot easier than baseball. "These guys got it all backwards," he told Kimmel. "You roll into an arena, and everybody that's there is for you!" he laughed. "You roll into a baseball park, if you're lucky half of them are for you, half of them hate you."

"In my gig," he added, "I hear 'I love you Garth'; from guys and girls, which is nice."

"In baseball," he grinned, "you hear 'I hate your music too'... so it was a little rough."

With his first record in 13 years released, and heading out on tour for the first time in a decade, Brooks called his time off the "greatest gift I've ever been given by God and the people was the time allotted to stay home and raise my babies."

Now he's going back on the road "to pay for tuition," he joked. And in the clip below, you can watch talk about he and his band pushing their bus backwards because it didn't have reverse: "It's those days that make you appreciate these days," he grins. Watch below:
