According to a 1945 article in the ''Baltimore Evening Sun'', while in high school (P.S. #91), Bergman lettered in baseball and football, but was more known for his baseball pitching abilities. He earned the nickname "Hank", because Baltimore fans said he reminded them of major league baseball star Hank Greenberg.With Bergman pitching, his high school baseball team from P.S. # 91, defeated P.S. # 115 to win the Baltimore City Championship in 1934. He was also a member of Baltimore's "Easterwood Boys", a youth group associated with Easterwood Park. In 1936, Bergman played in the 1936 PAL Newspost American Softball Tournament.
After graduating from Baltimore City College (High School) in 1938, Bergman worked for the Crown Cork and Seal Company and played semi-professional softball for teams sponsored by the Coca-Cola Company. Also, Bergman joined the Civilian Conservation Corps (CC) and worked on clearing swamps and building roads and highways. From 1934-1937, Bergman competed as an amateur lightweight boxer. After scoring 9-consecutive first round knockouts, he lost a decision to "Hotsy" Alperstein and retired.〔http://www.boxing-scoop.com/show_boxer.php?boxer_ID=12115〕 Bergman's biggest victory was over Tony LaPonte.
