If you're referring to Deion Sanders, he never played in a major league baseball game and an NFL game the same day. On October 11, 1992, he played for the Atlanta Falcons in their 21-17 afternoon loss to the Miami Dolphins in Miami. 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. Five days later, on September 10, 1989, Sanders was in a Falcons uniform in Atlanta, and he returned a punt for a 68-yard touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams.
