CNN —As Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James and son Bronny seek to make history Tuesday night by becoming the first father-son duo to play together in a regular season NBA game, they’ll be joined in Crypto.com Arena by some baseball royalty. In August of that year, as members of the Seattle Mariners, Griffey Sr. and Griffey Jr. became the first father and son to play in the same MLB game. “First father and son to play baseball, now first father and son to play basketball. So it’s a big deal for my dad and I to be there,” Griffey told host Jon Paul Morosi. But Bronny can be forgiven for his oversight, as the Howes’ incredible feat happened several years before even his dad LeBron was born.
