As a reds fan, Sean included our players are family. Pete was a walk on correct? I want to say I watched a documentary recently and yeah he was kid from the west side who literally ate slept and bled baseball ⚾ and a family member either knew a scout or was a reds scout and went to the front office and said you have to give this kid a shot
Just need to correct you on one thing Sean. Pete was unfiltered all the time. If he was more unfiltered behind the scenes… WOW 😂😂 but as a fan who’s is also a west sider my heart never sank like that for someone that wasn’t my family. This one hurt
10 seasons with 200 hits. 4,769 prof hits. 1,109 hits before they lowered the mound. 5,929 times on base. 1,972 wins. WS MVP. #letsgoreds #gobucksbeatblue #whodey
Case, you nailed it. None of us are perfect, we all have things that happened in our lives that we push through. Rose is no different. He used his God-given gifts to be the best hitter in history. Used every ounce of skill to be Charlie Hustle. Was he perfect? No, but none of us are. I’m sad that he wasn’t able to be honored and enshrined in the HOF in his lifetime, as he deserved.
You can say what you want about Pete Rose the man, but to not include the man who has the most hits in the history of the game cheapens your Hall of Fame!
