Public batting practice by retired NBA star Michael Jordan draws hundreds of reporters

On February 7 , 1994 –Public batting practice by retired NBA star Michael Jordan draws hundreds of reporters. Jordan looks to sign a deal with the Chicago White Sox as an outfielder but some Astros are quick to point out it won’t be easy for him. At his home, Houston pitcher Todd Jones is so incensed with radio callers predicting baseball stardom that he calls the station himself to challenge the basketball champion.

Jordan will report to spring training before being assigned to Class-AA Nashville. After one season in the minor leagues, Jordan will return to the NBA.
