A look back at the baseball career of Patrick Mahomes II

You may not know this, but there is a big game - a super big game - involving our friends across the parking lot this weekend. The Kansas City Chiefs will play the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a chance to win their second consecutive championship. The two quarterbacks, Tom Brady and Patrick Mahomes, are known for being among the greatest in the game, but another trait they share is that they were both selected in the Major League Baseball draft. Brady was selected in the 18th round of the 1995 draft out of high school by the Montreal Expos, while Mahomes was selected in the 37th round of the 2014 draft by the Detroit Tigers.
