Tim Raines played an incredible 23 seasons in the big leagues.

During his three years with the Yankees he helped his team to two World Series titles. He’d go on to see time with the Oakland Athletics, Montreal Expos and Baltimore Orioles before finishing his career with the Florida Marlins in 2002.

After his playing career ended he began coaching in the minor leagues with the Expos and eventually became a coach in the White Sox organization in 2004.
