Rafael Palmeiro will join the Sugar Land Skeeters for three games this weekend to play a series with his oldest son, Patrick.
Palmeiro, who is one of four MLB players with 500 homers and 3,000 hits in his career, signed with the Skeeters so he can play on Friday against the Camden Riversharks.
“We discussed me playing earlier this year and it’s something I’ve looked forward to since then,” said Palmeiro, 50. “The chance to play with my son is an opportunity the Skeeters have offered me and I’m very excited to make it happen this weekend.
