If you're referring to Deion Sanders, he never played in a major league baseball game and an NFL game the same day.

He then caught a plane to Pittsburgh, where his Atlanta Braves were playing the Pirates in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series. Although he was in uniform and available, the Braves did not play him that night. Sanders is the only man to play in a Super Bowl and a World Series. He won world championships with the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XXIX and the Dallas Cowboys in Super Bowl XXX. He batted .533 (8-for-15) against the Toronto Blue Jays in the 1992 World Series, but Toronto defeated Atlanta in six games. He also is the only person to hit a home run in major league play and score a touchdown in the NFL in the same week. On Tuesday, September 5, 1989, he hit a home run for the New York Yankees in a 12-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners in Seattle.

What day will Tim Lincecum pitch in the san franisco Atlanta Braves series?
Since Lincecum is pencilled in to start for the National League in the 2009 All-Star Game, be sure to pay attention to his next regular-season start for the San Francisco Giants. Like most major-league teams, the Giants use a five-man starting rotation. If Lincecum starts at Pittsburgh on Friday, July 17, then he most likely will pitch against the Braves in Atlanta on Wednesday, July 22. If he starts at Pittsburgh on Saturday, July 18, he's a good bet to pitch against Atlanta on Thursday, July 23. If Lincecum somehow is held back until Sunday. July 19, then he probably won't pitch against the Braves at all. I doubt that that will happen because he's been so dominant against Atlanta the last couple of seasons.
