Red Sox eye cricket star?

World Series champions the Boston Red Sox have expressed interest in the possibility of Australian wicket-keeper Adam Gilchrist playing major league baseball when he retires from cricket.

Has there been a successful transition from a ‘proper’ sport to the US? I know Spurs hero and legend of the Lane Clive Allen tried out for a few American Football teams and played for the London Monarchs in our short lived pro league, but I can’t think of another. I suppose the wages will be better. Maybe it will distract him enough during the coming test series?
