Every time Pete mentions a player and some stat tied to that player I double check it. Every single time he is right. He just knows that Don Blasingame hit .281 in 1962. It's incredible. What a savant!
David Kast I was saying the same thing to my brother Pete said something about the stats of others formers players and he's always right!!
That's why he was great at betting on baseball
He knows how many at bats and hits he got against certain pitchers. He was an analytics calculator before it existed
A live breathing baseball encyclopedia
It's a tell about how long and how prevalent his betting was. And how obsessed he was with his numbers.
frank robinson, vada pinson and curt flood went to the same high school in oakland ca. frank robinson was captain of the BASKETBALL team and won a state championship with a teammate named bill russell
McClymonds High School!!!
Evidently there was a lot of Virtue in the local water supply in those days.
BILL Russell almost didn't make it with the Dodgers but they knew they had something and they kept him
@@lucianolorenzo8395 The Bill Russell to whom you refer is from Kansas. The Bill Russell who played high school basketball with Frank Robinson became the greatest defender and champion in NBA history. The most dangerous thing a person can do is to be unclear about sarcasm, but since nobody but boomers would even get such a joke you get a pass.
Ok, thanks
I dug pete the same as i did all my favorite black baseball hero's i always rooted for him and I'm still rooting for him to enter the hall of fame.
Pete Rose should be in the hall of fame people! He was a great player! Charlie Hustle!!!
I could listen to this man talk all day, love Pete Rose's passion and knowledge of baseball
Man much Respect to Pete Rose.. Put him in the Hall of Fame!! He is a Hall of Famer!! And I'm Black and I've always said this... This dude was awesome on the field..
If Ty Cobb is in the HOF - I don't want to hear about anybody else's character flaws.
@@izraelite2908 what do you know about Ty Cobbs character ?
@@Cincinnatus1869 Not as much as I know now - Thank you. Knowledge is always good.
-but my general point on Pete Rose is still valid. I think this vendetta MLB has against him is ridiculous.
@@izraelite2908 so do I. Rose is baseball personified. The best example of how to play that major league baseball ever had .
It's stories like this that show your true colors. Pete didn't care about skin tone, and that's just one of the many reasons why he's one of the best ever.
Pete was durable and had a 113 career OPS+. He was a significant player but nowhere near one of the best ever, about three wins a year better than replacement level. Rod Carew was better, Tony Gwynn was better, Rickey Henderson was better, Joe Morgan was better among top of the lineup players during Pete’s playing career.
I Am A Hall of Fame level player is among or “one of” the best players ever. A million saber metrics will not change that fact. He is certainly in the same class as every player you mentioned.
@@mathewmcdonald3657 Whatever that means. Pete Rose was not as good as any of those players, period. He was the worst starting first baseman in major league history 1982-1986 and he had a horrible sophomore season in 1964. You will not find similarly awful stretches in the other players’ careers. Cobb outhit Rose by about 65 points and didn’t kill his own team in a thousand ways. Haha, let’s see if they let Pete in while Bench is alive. Hold your breath if your best color is purple.

@@azdbuk I don’t know what you are lolling about, Fanboi, since nobody denies Pete’s boomer-friendly volume of compilation stats, haha the facts are all there, but Pete is not going in the Hall of Fame because influential figures in the game correctly perceive that letting Pete Rose in the Hall would just instantly shut down the support of millions more fans as with work stoppages and health emergencies, so unless they can exhume the Rose betting scandal for one last round of dialectical distraction, unless there are some divisive and overriding social engineering and/or wealth transfer tropes to be exploited, Pete Rose is not going in the Hall of Fame.
The sports books have this covered.
Growing up a Mets fan in the 70's I hated Pete Rose, especially after his fight with little Buddy Harrelson in the 73 NLCS. But there was also that grudging respect for his talents as a ballplayer. He played the game the way it should be played. What he did was wrong, but he's paid for it. He should be reinstated and recognized for his accomplishments as a player. While he is alive.
Pete needs to be reinstated immediately, he has been punished long enough
Remember when he hit 3 homers in s game against the Mets? I believe in 1977 or 78.
The man is 70+ years old, seen a MILLION things with his eyes, and he remembers that egg salad sandwich. He should be in the Hall of Fame just for THAT, in addition to his 4,256 hits and other accolades on the field
One of the greatest players to have ever played the game.
I agree! I would take Rose on my team in any era! Mr. Hustle! Should be in the Hall of Fame!
Doesn't make a difference what color you are
Frank Robinson.
Agreed it a shame the hof don't let him in
Pete was a durable singles hitter with decent defense at several positions. He drew walks and ran the bases well and played baseball like he played sandlot football and talked like a Cincinnati meat cutter. He was a championship player and he was a competent manager as well.
Pete Rose, as a manager, bet on regular season play involving the team he was managing.
People think this ought to be overlooked, and that Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame.
Think about this.
Henry Aaron and Joe Morgan and Johnny Bench have commented on whether Pete ought to be in the Hall of Fame.
Those comments are all freely available on TH-cam and are well worth considering.
RIP FRANK ROBINSON....
I think Pete Rose has been punished long enough. The ban should be lifted so the man can take his place in the HOF.
I agree 200%... this is petty and vindictive at this point
Right on Pete Rose deserves better
Pete absolutely belongs in the Hall of Fame, one of the greatest hitters and greatest competitor of all time
What Pete's saying he's said before and it's true. Many of the players resented it when he took the second base job from Blasingame. They ignored him and Robinson and Pinson befriended him. He often tells the story about the first time Robinson and Pinson bought him room service.
RW - Hope it was the right hotel. Pinson and Robinson were not ALLOWED to stay in a lot of the hotels - - - I guess they were too tall!
Had the pleasure of seeing Pete play against the Phillies during his great hitting streak run. As a Phillies fan the smartest move they made was picking him up. He helped them win a world series! Great player!! Nuff said!! 🙂👍👏
The great Satchel Paige sitting at Dodgers Stadium eating an egg salad sandwich....the legendary Pete Rose sitting next to him with egg salad all over his hands...now THIS IS BASEBALL!!!!
That's a cool moment in history captured by word of mouth.
yes
I have egg salad in my fridge right now. Guess what I'm having for dinner!
Dude that would be amazing. Imagine going to watch a game and everybody around you is a former baseball great. Who you like to sit next to, what would you ask?
Pete ' s line after the 2016 World Series was priceless, "This is the Cubs' first World Championship in their new ballpark."
Fuck off
2 years ago dude...2 years....
Yeah, and the park wasn’t built for them originally. It was originally the home of the Chicago Whales.
Ha!!
Say what you will, but Pete Rose is one of the greatest ambassadors of the game. His stories are always the best. Baseball has made an example of this great player, yet tuned their heads, for so many years, on rampant steroid use. Apparently, you could cheat, you just couldn't bet. Five will get you ten, Pete Rose never took steroids. Here's another hypocrisy. Why are there odds and point spreads for every NFL football game? Is it just because it's interesting?
Nestor123057 you are exactly right bud.
Nestor123057 the concern is that somebody in a position to throw ball game is going to do so. I definitely don't believe he ever threw a game
No greater competitor ever played the game. The HOF is a farce without his presence.
Pete Rose is also a habitual liar. Lied for 20 years about not betting on baseball and only came clean 1) to make money on a book and 2) because he thought it was his only chance to get into the Hall of Fame. So we're supposed to believe a habitual liar whose story only makes him look better? He's a dirtball who cheated on his wife, cheated on people he dealt with throughout his life. One of the reasons he got busted is he stiffed the guy making bets for him. Refused to pay what he owed. You guys are kissing the ass of a complete dirtball. Yeah, he can quote stats. He also would sell his mother down the river for a buck.
@@RisingSon011 - I thought that he was accused on betting on his team to WIN! I almost wish all players did that,except for problems we have with the point spreads.
This is why I will never tolerate Pete Rose slander, EVER.
Huh?
I second that!!
Who needs to slander someone who has done as many shady things as Pete Rose?
@@IAm-qf2xb remember when your one finger is pointing at someone you have three others pointing at you😆
@@jmm1817 Great original material, come out and say it another way, it’s the first time I have heard that today.
The only race Pete cared about was the pennant race.
Pete was a team leader and champion player, he always got along with all players, always loved his style of play since 1963
I remember watching Pete at Crosley Field.
Pete would draw a walk and tear off into a full sprint running to 1st.
Amazing guy, amazing baseball player.
Most knowledgeable person I’ve ever known about baseball, he just loves the game.
I don't give a damn that he bet on baseball, not like it's easy to throw a game as a manager. Look how many it took for the 1919 White Sox
@@bluesage420 Yeah that makes sense, because it is difficult to pull off he gets a pass, great logic.
Pete loved the game so much he took hundreds of huge selfish dumps on it and then lied through his teeth about it for decades, not that this was in any way disrespectful to his Hall of Famer contemporaries, who unanimously want Pete in the Hall, sure, absolutely.
Either way it’s a shame he hasn’t been in baseball the last thirty years.
@@subg8858 The shame is all on Pete, who gambled on his own team during regular season play, thus willfully compromising the integrity of the game. No quarter.
In a way he felt how minoritie players felt a lot of times if not all the times during those days....Pete Rose, what an OUTSTANDING PLAYER....
The day Pete Rose get into the HOF posthumously, I will stop watching and attending MLB games. The man deserves to be there, he earned it.
Haha, please. Pete will go in the HOF the same time the Reds will go to the World Series: *WHEN HELL FREEZES OVER!!!!!!!!!!! IT’S NEVER GOING TO HAPPEN!!!!!! 75 AND 76 WERE THE REDS PEAK!!! THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER BIG RED MACHINE EVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!! DON’T COUNT ON IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELL, THEY’LL EVEN LOSE THE FIELD OF DREAMS GAME AGAINST THE CUBS!!!!!!!!! THE REDS ARE DEAD!!!!!!!!!! IT’S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THEY’RE REMOVED FROM THE LEAGUE AND GREAT AMERICAN BALLPARK IS TORN DOWN!!!!!!!!*
Pete Rose belongs in the HOF period for what he did on the field. One of the greatest players ever. He got to that level without resorting to performance enhancing drugs. He did it with hustle. What he did off the field does not tarnish what he did on the field in my opinion.
Please let this guy back into mlb lime light. He is an mlb treasure. I could listen to talk about anything. Fantastic.
love to have a beer with pete
I had a couple with Pete about 20 years ago in Cincinnati. I was with Target and we were opening stores in Cincy and he was doing some promotional work for Target. I told him I remembered when he was coming up and nobody thought he had a chance to take Blasingame's position. He said 'Hutch didn't like him'. I should also mention that he was the last one to make it to our dinner (there were 6 of us) and it was football season, so the first words out of his mouth when he arrived were 'How'd Notre Dame do today?'
Later the conversation inevitably got around to his suspension. I said I thought he was in an impossible spot; they weren't going to let him back into baseball unless he admitted gambling, and if he admitted gambling, they'd never let him in. He looked me right in the eye and said "I'll NEVER admit to gambling". We talked about a lot of stuff; salaries, toughest pitchers, (Marichal) best player he played with (Schmidt) and so on.
Steadno me too
Steadno ive met him...hes pretty arogant and rude
I met him at restaurant in Boca in the early 90s while he was eating, he put down his corn on the cob and shook mine and my cousin's hands. Asked us where we were from and let us take a picture, maybe you met him at a bad time but he was great to us !
You can have the beer, but Pete says he doesn't drink alcohol.
There is nothing phony about Pete Rose. Every story he tells is consistent because when he repeats it another time none of it has changed. That's how you know he tells the truth. I had an Uncle just like him, awesome athlete and very consistent with his life and how he lived it. You're the best Pete!
Rose definitely belongs in Hall of Fame. So does Joe Jackson.
Pete Rose is in the hall of fame. He is a wwe hall of famer for awhile now.
He belongs in prison, not the Hall of Fame!
escobar mohammed finally we can put this argument to bed!
Pete Rose is a disgrace to major league baseball.
@@desertmonsoon1 ... wake up libtard
For the life of me I can't understand why Pete not in the Hall of Fame. He needs to be there period. The all time hit leader. Baseball should be ashamed of themselves.
The black players were the only ones to hung with Pete after the early games
Color didn’t matter to Pete
If every player played the game like Pete Rose did, it would be the most exciting of all of the sports. Charlie Hustle !
Totally agree and every sport they should be like him work hard hustle and don't dance around like a stupid moran for making a good play
I didn't have the opportunity to watch Rose play. He was before my time but thje more I hear him speak, the more I like the guy.
he was awesome to watch. no one played the game harder that I ever saw, or got more out of his ability
I was lucky enough to have seen him play, and at that time they were a lot of good one dimensional players. Pete was the best all around players. And to me it was done by how hard he played,not by hi ability.
man he was amazing to watch!!! please check out the clips on youtube!
you missed a great era in baseball history. players went all out because they had to, pitchers pitched complete games, day games, Monday Night Baseball, Saturday's game of the week all the local team's games on free tv , inside pitching, going to a game was something any kid could afford to go to( just a few bucks for a DA seat) players playing with the same team for years, players who enjoyed the game and appreciated the fans. I pity the generation that drew up after free agency.
Pete Rose was one of the greatest players ever. Many believe he is the GOAT!
Charlie Hustle.
1 of a kind and the GOAT.
Greatest what? 113 OPS+ lol.
Pete rose needs to be in the hall of fame he is true class act .one of my favorite players Mr hustle should be inducted he played hard and is definitely has a record that will stand for a long time
How can the MLB justify not punishing Jose Altuve and keeping Pete out of the HOF at the same time? Ridiculous...
First: Do you really think Altuve’s getting in now? Second: They had the goods on Pete and he acknowledged it and signed the form. Had him dead to rights, and he knew it. Sign is posted in every clubhouse in MLB.
@@DanStrayer Thankfully all baseball players never did performance enhancing drugs or did other substances before, after and sometimes during games.
@@DanStrayer Rose NEVER bet against The Reds while manager. FBI report. IMO Rose belongs in Hall. If he just once bet against Reds I'd agree with you 100%.
@@SLAYERSWINE1 Didn’t have to. Instead, he had a simple tip-off to the gangsters that the Reds were gonna have a bad night by starting Bill Gullickson. That was the duplicity that met the standards of betting: skewing the odds against his team in full sight of the people who had an interest.
@@DanStrayer So you say🤔 I don't ever recall anything remotely similar to your allegation in the FBI report which I read many years ago. Besides, you going to tell me what most of what Houston did as far as cheating wasn't worse ?!?!
It's nice to hear the story from Pete himself, not the media's narrative as to what happened. And by the way, Pete should absolutely be in the Hall, and Frank was the best and is sorely missed!!!
How can you not love our hometown hero, “Charlie Hustle”, HOF for Pete Rose now and before you get your plaque be sure to wash that egg salad sandwich off your hands....lol
Another solid interview. These are my favorites on the Tube.
Love listening to Pete talk about the game. He needs to be in the HOF!
I love Pete...he never fails to make me laugh...out loud..a true showman's charisma.
Was they afraid the black would rub off on Pete? That explains the dumb Frank Robinson trade.
I lived for 6 years in the Cincinnati area. While I was there, I heard the real reason Frank Robinson was traded to Baltimore was to get him away from Pete.
I cannot freakin fathom how a "professional" organization could make personnel decisions like that (mind you, it was Frank Robinson they traded) based on skin color/tone.
@@aggie7756 in the early 60's I can
Within 4 years of trading Robinson the Reds won the pennant with a team that fielded plenty of black and Hispanic players
You gotta love a man that likes a good egg salad sandwich! He got egg salad all over his hand & wrist, but such an honor for Pete to shake the great man's hand! I love all Pete's stories. God Bless him.
I’m from Cincinnati. I saw Pete Rose play often! Great player and he knows baseball
Anyone who can make Frank Robinson smile is alright in my book.
Frank Robinson wanted Rose banned from the Hall of Fsme to the day Frank died, RIP 💗🙏
I agree. I met him in 83 when he was with Baltimore. I asked him for an autograph and he sucked his teeth and shook his head. But he did it.
@@bigpoppa3866 He was a highly respectable old school, stern but not humorless GENTLEMAN, and your story is relatable to say the least.
Frank had absolute command presence and I miss him and his exemplary ways dearly.
@@bigpoppa3866 Ha! That’s funny! Frank was a tough one.
I met Pete in Las Vegas in 2013. It was a very cool . We talked for about 5min and got some pictures . He has a very strong handshake LOL👌.
a lot of people leave frank robinson out when talking about the greatest players....frank could do it all i saw that with my own eyes many times
He and Willie and Hank were the great matched set in the NL.
If Barry Bonds ends up in the Hall of Fame, then Pete Rose should no only be in but the MLB should do an apology tour for not inducting him earlier.
Pete was no joke! He's 100% right. Pete didn't give a damn what you were, as long as you could play hard and win. Those Reds teams were loaded, and whenever things got tough, Pete would always make something happen. I would have loved to play with him, or a player like him.
*This is good stuff!*
Thanks Colby! Glad you like it, make sure you're subscribed! -AD
One greatest I ever seen should be in Hall of Fame
Hall of Famer. Get him in.
Put this guy in THE HOF! there are people in the HOF now that did way more adgregiuos things to dishonor baseball. Plus he always bet on his team to win. Love it!
@@matt8863 thx dude...
Put Pete in the hall! Awesome player! Charlie Hustle!
Respect level for Pete just powered up ⬆️ 💪🏻
MLB needs this interview for all Ball Clubs
Piss on the HOF, I seen Pete get inducted into the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame, for a Reds Fan that's the one I wanted to see him in. I was there the weekend they honored Pete and the Great 8. Sat there with tears in my eyes as my childhood heros were once again together at the Ball Park. Joe Morgan wasn't able to make it due to health reasons but they had him live on the big screen. The best damn day I've ever had at a ball park
Charlie Hustle....I am honored to say that I love bragging that Pete Rose started his Profressional Single A baseball career in my hometown in Geneva, New York.
Why am I craving an egg salad sandwich now?
Pete rose should go in the hof he was and is always be part of the big red machine of 70s
Hall of famer!
that's a no brainer
I was a Phillies fan from 1975 onwards. I hated Pete Rose until he played for the Phillies. Without him they never would have won the 1980 World Series. As far as Pete being in the Hall Of Fame goes, he has the credentials. So did Shoeless Joe Jackson.
I knew I liked Pete as a person for some reason.
Could listen to Pete all day. Greatest hitter AND winner of all time. HOF is a disgrace…..
We have racists,murderers and sex offenders in the Hall of Fame ?
Yet the man with the most hits in the history of the game is banned ?
I can listen to this guy talk baseball all night.
great stuff
Pete Rose great player...need to be in Cooperstown.
I played second base because of Pete one of my childhood Idle.
Pete Rose is a legend.
Good for him. Everyone should be who they are.
Pete Rose, extremely underrated baseball player and human.
Rose was underrated as a player? Lmao The all time hits leader who would have been a first ballot hall of famer if not for the gambling scandal. He should still be in the Hall based on his MLB career as a player.
Charlie Hustle never bet on a game to lose that he participated in. He's Charlie Hustle, C'mon!
Even if he did...(who really knows) Time to induct him in HOF while he's still with us.
Stop. He brought Mario Soto back early from the DL to start for Ted Power so Pete could escape a $60,000 gambling debt. So he risked a player’s future for selfish reasons. My country is an embarrassment.
@@IAm-qf2xb wow! You really know his history. But, is that proof or speculation?
@@douglaslowe5 I know, right.
@@dexterbernard2701 Have you read the Dowd Report? Have you read the testimony of clubhouse personnel who ran his bets? Have you read Bill James’ paper where Bill flipped on Pete because of the betting slip evidence of the game against Atlanta involving Power and Soto? Do you think there is any chance whatsoever that MLB would ban Pete and the enormous payday that would come with his induction based on speculation or that John Bench and Frank Robinson and Henry Aaron and Joe Morgan would all oppose Pete’s induction based on speculation? What you are doing is tenth-rate lawyering. Pete bet on play involving the MLB team he was managing after walking past that NO BETTING sign *more times than any player in ML history* end of story.
Pete Rose should be in the Hall
I love Pete Rose
I sat first row at wriggled in-front of the steps of the dugout.
He came out to argue a play and I was about ten feet from him... maybe 1985?
In June of 1960 I saw my first Dodger game. They played the Cincinnati Reds. Sandy Koufax gave up a grand slam in the first inning that went up and over the short left field net. Koufax was pulled in the second inning. Dodgers lost 4 to 3.
Pete Rose is a legend and he deserves to be in the Hall Of Fame and he gave it his all when he was on the field and people that are in the Hall Of Fame aren't alter boys. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017
Great spirit.
If nothing else, Pete should get into the HOF for his story-telling, alone.
⚾️CHARLiE HUSTLE!⚾️
World class man-spreading right there.
LOL!!!
That was a great story that Pete told about meeting the great Satchell Paige. I find it compelling and odd the Reds would inform Pete he was hanging out too often with his black teammates. Later on was he told the same thing by management if he hung out frequently with Tony Perez and Dave Concepcion?
In the early 1960's Blacks and Whites didn't hang like that
Makes no sence at this point to keep him out of the Hall of Fame. Sports writers put him in before its to late !
egg salad sandwiches are the best...I can deffintley relate!😁
Egg salad sandwich 😂😂😂
Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame … It’s that simple … beat Rose knows baseball not racist you see it a total rapport with his teammates … he did not care about what others saw … talking with black players on the team God bless him … He played the game hard … he is “Mr. baseball”
I'm always amazed at the detail old ballplayers remember things. Maybe they're just making it up, or maybe they really do remember. Old players always say stuff like, "1957 in Chicago; it was the second game of a doubleheader. We'd won the first game 3-2 when Jones gave up the winning run on a slider that bounced in the dirt. That put us up by half a game in the pennant race. I had eaten some peanuts from the concession stand in between games and they didn't really agree with me, so I sat down next to Williams on the bench. He was a big kid from Alabama, with big, thick glasses. His dad owned a hardware store, and I told him...."
hahaha!
The hit king. Controversial. Sure. A genius player, that can't be argued.
Damn, Ty Cobb the biggest racist in baseball, Pete Rose the opposite
Iam sure Ty Cobb did the same thing like Pete did and he still made it to the Hall of Fame
Pete deserves the to be in the hall of fame
The way Ty Lived his life doesn't suggest that he was a racist at all. He employed black folks at his businesses, he attended Negro League ballgames, sat in the dugout and helped instruct the players, and at least once threw out the first pitch at a Negro League game. He was one of the most vocal supporters of integration in the majors. Considering the time and place he grew up he was remarkably non racist. His family had been abolitionists in previous generations . His grandfather pretty much cost himself his political career by advocating fair treatment of blacks in Georgia.
@@Cincinnatus1869 Tyrone Cobb????
@@lucianolorenzo8395 what in the world would make you think Ty Cobb was the ' biggest racist in baseball history ' ?
MLB, grant Pete a pardon and put him in the hall.
Wow! Free Pete Rose!! His Statistics Belong In The Hall Of Fame! Period... Place This Man Where He Belongs Now Before He Dies! Give Him His Flowers Right Now... Even Though He Bet On Baseball & That Is Wrong With A Capital W! He Has Suffered Long Enough... Take Care GOD IS!!!!! 🙏🙏❤️😀😤😤😤😩🤩😡😍☹️👎😀🤟✌️❤️🙏🙏

They have to put Pete in the Hall. Forgiveness in life is important..
He was an Outstanding Ball player....and if you ask Roberto Clemente....He would have said....I'll play with Pete anytime, anywhere.....
Say what you will about Pete but one thing is undeniable... he tells a great story.
He's over 80 now and still has great memory - spewing out stats like a computer.
❤❤Pete Rose. Was a time i would bring tuna sandwiches for the guys, 6 or 10. Well filled, tomatoes & messy. They would have fought for those sandwiches. Made some good memories.
PETE ROSE IS DEFINETLY ONE OF GREATEST HITTERS OF ALL TIME. DID YOU HEAR THAT ? ALL TIME !!!! MAYBE A HANDFUL OF PLAYERS WERE AS GOOD OR EVEN BETTER THAN HE. IF I WERE TO CHOOSE A LEAD OFF HITTER ON A DREAM TEAM IT WOULD BE HIM OVER ANYONE. A N Y O N E !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah because you got a man on second to start the game, didn't need to steal second, his bat took care of that.
Let's be real. America was crazy from 1700-into the 1980s. Stone cold crazy! And even in 2021, remnants of former craziness remain in full effect!
Pete Rose wealth of baseball knowledge is second to none.
Pete had so much energy. After a hit, he ran the bases so hard. Gene Freeze- I hope he is okay. At a Milwaukee Braves baseball game, Gene was playing 3rd base. Gene was hit in the face with a line drive baseball. He was unconscious for a few seconds and had to leave the game. That must have been painful, and not good for his brain to sustain such a horrible concussion.
Still remember the Big Red Machine....from top to bottom l
love pete rose
