On this day in 1994, Michael Jordan made his MLB debut, going 0-for-1 in a spring training game for the White Sox. The baseball thing never exactly panned out for Jordan, as SI's Steve Wulf explains in the lead of his famous March 1994 cover story "Err Jordan." 

"He called the first base umpire "the ref." In the field, he played a single into a double and an out into a single. Though he moves well on the base paths, his best time to first base, 4.35 seconds, is slower than average. At bat he brings to mind a taller, righthanded Rich Gedman—the Walt Hriniak disciple who can no longer hit the ball out of the infield.

At least he has provided baseball people with a conversation starter this spring. Barely concealing their sneers, the scouts and players and writers ask one another, "Have you seen him?" They are not talking about Oddibe McDowell. They are talking, of course, about the rightfield hopeful for the Chicago White Sox, 31-year-old Michael Jordan.

Granted, he looks good in a baseball uniform. Granted, he is the greatest basketball player who has ever lived. Granted, a few weeks of batting practice, an intrasquad game and two exhibitions against the Texas Rangers are not a lot to go on. But this much is clear: Michael Jordan has no more business patrolling rightfield in Comiskey Park than Minnie Minoso has bringing the ball upcourt for the Chicago Bulls."

On The Bright Side

Things still worked out for Jordan, despite his struggles on the baseball diamond. He earned more in 2013 ($90 million) than every other active athlete besides Floyd Mayweather Jr. and just had twins with new wife Yvette. Also of note, his trademark Air Jordans have been reimagined as high-end fashion brands.

Odds and Ends

DC Sports Bog uncovered this 1979 poll of Redskins players. Miller was the beer of choice back then ... This is what happens when someone who isn't sober lines a soccer field ...
