In English and many other languages I could say something like this:
Tom and Jack play football and baseball respectively.
That means that Tom plays football and Jack plays baseball.
How can I say this in German? What is the equivalent of "respectively"?

This is expressed with the conjunction beziehungsweise. Admittedly, the structure of a German sentence containing beziehungsweise is different from the structure of an English sentence containing and ... respectively. Rather than translating word by word, the conjunction and becomes the conjunction beziehungsweise. For example, the sentence
Tom and Jack play football and baseball, respectively.
is translated to
Tom und Jack spielen Fußball beziehungsweise Baseball.
meaning that Tom plays football and Jack plays baseball.

@HenningKockerbeck That's right. But isn't the English "respectively" also a bit bureaucratic? I have never heared somebody using it in causal speech, or in an everyday situation. I think both beziehungsweise and respectively are expressions to emphasize the separateness of notions, and such kind of over-precision is not usual nor necessary in everyday communication.

@HenningKockerbeck: And an English native speaker might rather say: "Tom plays football, and Jack (plays) baseball." Also, according to Google's Ngram Viewer, the word "beziehungsweise" appears significantly more often in (relatively) recent German books than the word "Fußball" — which, one might argue, is a fairly common German word.

This answer is not correct as it doesn't work with an ambiguous object. As duden mentions it works on things that can clearly not be true for both subjects likeihre Tochter und ihr Sohn sind sechs beziehungsweise acht Jahre alt(her daughter and son are six and eight respectively). But this answers example could as well mean that Tom AND Jack play soccer AND baseball. I'm a native speaker.
