Dang. Best hitter in the history of the game. Too bad he never was allowed into the HoF.

Getting a Pete Rose card in a pack of Topps baseball cards was probably one of the coolest things that could happen to a kid around here back in the 70s

Maybe now they’ll finally let him in

RIP Charlie Hustle

Rose's 4,256 hits are 67 more than Ty Cobb's career mark for the most in MLB history. Rose also played in the most games and had the most at-bats in history. In a playing career that spanned from 1963 to 1986, Rose won three batting titles and led the league in hits seven times. He was Rookie of the Year in 1963, a 17-time All-Star and the National League MVP in 1973

My thought too, now that the commissioner doesn't have to look him in the eyes and shake his hand, and they know he won't get to enjoy it.

RIP Pete, they didn't call him Charlie Hustle for nothing

He definitely deserves to be in there.

I saw him in Vegas in 2014 he was in a small room on display in a casino charging money for autographs. I felt sorry for him, he had lost his sports bar in Vegas and he did this everyday to make money. You could see on his face he was miserable doing this. I was a big fan of the big red machine when I was a kid. Went to see him and rest of my heroes play ball in Cincinnati along time ago.
RIP Pete
