One of the greatest baseball players ever. Even though his career was marred my gambling allegation I still think that he was one of the greatest.

I guess if he haven't been denying gambling for years, it might have had a different outcome on his story.

He was exciting to watch. We had season tickets to the Phillies while he was here---the man never sat down. When he was in the dugout he was hanging on the wall being a cheer leader and a coach for the batters and runners. His signature belly slide said it all---it is how he played the game---all in! It is a damn shame he did what he did by betting---he paid the price

I met Pete about ten years ago at the Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas. He was there doing a book signing at a sports bar/store. I was getting the book as a present for my Pete Rose fan father.
