Rafael Palmeiro and son Patrick combine for four hits and five RBIs to lead the Sugar Land Skeeters past the Camden Riversharks, 10-4, in the Atlantic League. (0:34)

SUGAR LAND, Texas -- Rafael Palmeiro teamed with son Patrick to help the Sugar Land Skeeters beat Camden 10-4 on Friday night in the Atlantic League.

Playing their first game together after Rafael, 50, signed Thursday, the father-son combination went 4 for 9 with 5 RBIs.

Rafael Palmeiro went 2 for 4 as the designated hitter, driving in a run with a single in the fifth inning. Patrick Palmeiro, 25, played third base and went 2 for 5 with 4 RBIs.

Rafael Palmeiro was a four-time All-Star in 20 seasons in the major leagues with the Chicago Cubs, Texas Rangers and Baltimore Orioles. He hit .288 with 569 homers and 1,835 RBIs, but his career was tarnished by a 10-day suspension in 2005 for a positive steroids test, which surfaced after he testified at a congressional hearing that he had never taken performance-enhancing drugs.
