It took a while but MLB has now officially lifted the ban of Pete Rose and we can all rejoice. Rose was an integral part of the Cincinnati Reds and Philadelphia Phillies and throughout that time, he served the bravery of three World championships, 17-time all-star selections, and 1973 NL MVP.
He was a classic to watch as the committee also reinstated shoeless Joe Jackson from further ago and leaves question to the Hall of Fame eligibility of Rose. Just how many roses will the termed ‘hit king’ receive now, deceased?
It is unfortunate that is the case but it will first take five to prove all the naysayers including ESPN’s lead contributor Tim Kurkjian who came out ruthlessly about the United States president intervention with Rose’s reinstatement.
There are people within the game simply upset about Article 21 but at the end of the day. It is about accolades in any sport and even though gambling should not be permitted at all. There should not be disrespect at all for a former player/manager such as Rose who was a joy to spectate.
