No and no, but your second guess is REALLY close...

He is most known for playing for the Tigers and Yankees.

I like the Deion Sanders shout on Super Bowl Sunday.

Shaun Estes?

 

[LHG]

John Burkett?

Nope, sorry.

Shaun Estes?

Its Shawn, but correct! Looks like its your turn.

Deion was intentional since he played football, but my brain never connected that to the Super Bowl today.

Mike Mussina....one of my favorite pitchers of this era. Joined the Yanks after they won...I just loved how he went about his business.

Damn it, tried to leave it just vague enough! I thought it was interesting how he pitched for the Yankees for so many years, but never won a title.

They were good clues, I just know a lot about him because I admired him from afar. Wish he had signed with the Giants back in the day.

Hell, we could've used him at the time. But we got Jason Schmidt mid-season instead, which was still cool.

 

[dredinis21]

Ok, here's another of my favorites from back in the day....
