Two-Sport Athletes

As Michael Jordan celebrates the 15-year anniversary of his retirement from baseball, SI looks back at some of the most famous two-sport athletes, beginning with His Airness, who was already considered one of the NBA's all-time greats when he hung up his high tops in favor of spikes prior to the 1992-93 season. Unfortunately, his baseball career never panned out. After 18 months and a .202 career batting average, Jordan retired from baseball and returned to the Bulls, where he won three more championships.
