Michael Jordan is a name known to probably everyone on the planet. He has had his share of ups and downs. During his time with the Bulls, there came a point when things weren’t going well for him. He became stressed out about the game. In that condition, he made a surprising decision to try his hand at baseball. It kept him away from his primary sport for a while.
