Five years ago, Padres left-hander Randy Wolf took the hill in spring training with his brother Jim serving as the home plate umpire. However, that didn't help the pitcher much as he struggled in a 6-2 loss to the Brewers. That marked the only time that this happened because even though Jim has served as the third base ump in a regular season game with Randy on the hill, he is not assigned to call balls and strikes when his brother is pitching.
