Anyone got any names?
I know Chad Hutchinson did, the guy from the Yankees (who went to ND I think), I'm watching the Pro Bowl, and they said John Lynch was the first pitcher drafted by the Marlins I think. John Elway could throw 100 mph.

And who was the catcher that used to be a hockey goalie? Nothing much got past him!

Baseball umpire Cal Hubbard made it to the Baseball Hall of Fame as an ump & to the NFL Hall of Fame as a player. I believe he is the only man in both Halls.
Freddie Fitzsimmons (Pitcher for NY Giants/Brooklyn Dodgers, coach for Boston Braves, Red Sox & Giants, Phillies MGR) was GM of the now defunct Brooklyn Dodgers football franchise.
