Summary
For more than a decade, Tim Raines patrolled left field for the nascent Montreal Expos, alongside other superstars such as Andre “Hawk” Dawson, Gary Carter, and Steve Rogers. The seven-time all-star tore through the Expos’ record books before moving on… to the Chicago White Sox, New York Yankees, Oakland Athletics, Baltimore Orioles, and Florida Marlins, ultimately earning three World Series rings (one as a coach). But it wasn’t always easy - Raines’s performance dipped in 1982, and at the end of the season, he entered a substance abuse program for cocaine addiction. He would ultimately resume his career several times, culminating in the Expos retiring his number (#30), and in January 2017, being elected to the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. 2017.
