Default Re: Will there be another two-sport star?

Someone here have the latest issue of ESPN the Magazine? There's a very short blurb there about a guy who played in two major sports, though I've never heard of him. Hopefully, I'll remember to check the issue when I get home.

Here he is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Hendrickson

Not exactly a two-sport "star", but he did play in the NBA and is currently an MLB pitcher.

he's a scrub in each league - and there's no evidence to suggest hendrickson would've been a good major league pitcher even without his NBA career, because he doesn't throw hard.

also he never played in both sports at the same time. i guess i should've specified that.
