[edit] Fast Facts
- Rainey won a career high 14 games for the Cubs in 1983. On August 24 of that year, against the Cincinnati Reds at Wrigley Field, he had a no-hitter broken up with two out in the ninth by an Eddie Milner single, the only hit Rainey would allow in a 3-0 Cub victory. The no-hitter would have been the first by a Cub (and, in fact, the first one the Cubs had been involved in) since Milt Pappas in 1972.
- On December 10, 1982, he was traded by the Boston Red Sox to the Chicago Cubs for Doug Bird.
- On July 15, 1984, he was traded by the Chicago Cubs to the Oakland Athletics for Davey Lopes.
