You have any idea how hard it is to make the major leagues, let alone have 4 people in your family reach that level?
And each of them appeared in at least 1 All Star Game.

Also, while it's not generational...the Molina Brothers - Bengie, Yadier and Jose.
All Major League Catchers.
All have won a World Series.
