We remember Pete Rose who was born in Cincinnati on this day in 1941.  He died in 2024.

Rose broke with the Reds in 1963:  .273 with 170 hits plus the NL Rookie of the Year award.  

He won the MVP in 1973 and 3 batting titles over the years.  

Rose retired with a .303 average, 4,256 hits and 3 World series rings.   He played in 6 World Series:   4 with the Reds and 2 with the Phillies.

In 1989, Rose was banned from baseball and the debate goes on about his Hall of Fame status.
