[edit] Fact

On October 4, 2001, Raines, Jr. played center field and his father Tim Raines, Sr. played left field, in an Orioles' 5-4 loss to the Boston Red Sox. They became the second major league father-son duo to play in the same game, matching the feat turned by Ken Griffey, Sr. and Ken Griffey, Jr. (with Seattle Mariners, on August 31, 1990).
