Pete Rose Signed Baseball Bat Image
Peter Rose, nicknamed "Charlie Hustle", was an American professional baseball player and manager. He played from 1963 to 1986, most notably as a member of the Cincinnati Reds. He also played for the Philadelphia Phillies, where he won his third World Series championship in 1980, and had a brief stint with the Montreal Expos. He managed the Reds from 1984 to 1989.

Rose was a switch hitter and is MLB's all-time leader in hits (4,256), games played (3,562), at-bats (14,053), singles (3,215), and outs (10,328). He won three World Series championships, three batting titles, one Most Valuable Player Award, two Gold Glove Awards, and the Rookie of the Year Award. He made 17 All-Star appearances in an unequaled five positions (second baseman, left fielder, right fielder, third baseman, and first baseman). He won two Gold Glove Awards when he was an outfielder, in 1969 and 1970. He also has the third longest hit streak in MLB history at 44, and remains the last player to hit safely in 40 or more games.

In 1991, the Baseball Hall of Fame formally voted to ban Rose from induction after he was accused of betting on baseball. After years of public denial, Rose admitted in 2004 that he had bet on baseball. The issue of his election to the Hall of Fame remains contentious throughout baseball. Pete Rose passed away in September 2024. Many baseball fans speculate that Rose's record will eventually earn him a posthumous induction into the Hall of Fame.
