Pete never DH'd an at-bat. Every at-bat was paid for by taking a position in the field.
He didn't get paid every time. He lost several of those bets.
Pete was what fans and media call as a five-tool player, meaning he did everything he could to help his team win. I don't know too many people off the top of my head that embodied similar qualities on the field. No question, he paid a huge penalty for what he did in betting on baseball.
Ex cons are ex cons forever...let him be exiled forever. Hope he knew Jesus
Full disclosure…ESPN is an investor in Draft Kings and Fan Duel
And MLB supports sports books at every opportunity, including advertising in their ballparks. It's terribly hypocritical.
Unfortunately, Pete Rose bet on his own team. I'm sure everyone agrees that this is unacceptable. So, I guess it is a bit complicated.
It's a shame Pete didn't get caught gambling on baseball in 2024 instead of 1989. Ohtani didn't even get a one game suspension... Maybe MLB would have even hired Pete to be their Draftkings marketing manager SMH. HYPOCRITES. F MLB ..F the HOF. I hope Pete's family make the HOF remove Pete's memorabilia. Baseball doesn't deserve to display it
Because Ohtani never gambled.Ohtani Conspiracy id**ts are afraid to read the Fed Transcript. Transcript is like kryptonite to the Conspiracy s🤡 btw, his interpreter never bet on baseball. If that matters.
Stop the bs already yall babies are running out of panties. Ohtani is the best player ever. He don't have time to waste like yall gambling. He is too busy working on his craft. Stop slandering people with no proof. Think how stupid it sounds to think the fbi would cover for mlb lmao.
Besides you hate it so much stop watching. Slap boxing. I hate just Pete isn't in also. In fact Cooperstown. Should have an asterisk next to it. But stop crying about it. He not only bet on baseball, but lied about it for 14 years.
Alex cora cheated and he's still a manager😊
Ohtani never gambled. Conspiracy 🤡s are afraid to read the Fed Transcript. Transcript is like kryptonite to the Conspiracy s🤡 guilty conman ippei (not a fall guy)never bet on baseball,
I never thought I would agree with Bob Costas on anything. Great perspective !
Bob costas is a broadcasting legend. If you don’t agree with him on much your opinions on sports and baseball in particular are not worth much
Hes got 5 to 1 odds to enter Heaven.
But in all seriousness, RIP to the legend
I never saw an athlete play harder than "Charlie Hustle" RIP Pete Rose, you're in my HOF!!!!
True. I only saw him play once against our beloved Dodgers. It was 10 times better than any other game I attended. Steve Yeager hit a grand slam to blow it open, but just watching Johnny Bench and Tony Perez take batting practice was worth the price of admission. not to mention Pete Rose running so hard to first on a walk you literally thought this man will run through a brick wall. Yes, he should be in HOF. But, we are used to as a country, injustice everywhere unfortunately.
@@vernpascal1531 As a player, there is absolutely no question he did everything with full intensity at the plate and in the field. He did whatever it took to see his team win. However, since 1989 I am in the camp similar to many other fans and media, I hope that the BBWAA and the Hall of Fame can finally relax their rules--whenever that time so those who have a ballot could consider him for induction--again, as a player. On the bottom of the plaque, there should be an asterisk briefly detailing why he bet on the sport and why he was banned in 1989. The asterisk should serve as a reminder that gambling in sports is wrong. No other way to say it.
Pete Rose's career hits record will never be broken. Even though he took more at-bats to break it than Ty Cobb did, he did it against modern pitching, not a bunch of guys who threw 70-80 mph fastballs, hanging curves, and spitballs.
Ty Cobb faced Walter Johnson , the greatest pitcher until Paul Skenes came along this year .
Ichiro broke his record
Spitball is hard as hell to hit..
4,769 prof hits, 1,109 before lowering of mound. 5,929 times on base. 1,972 wins. 3x champ. '75 WS MVP. #letsgoreds #gobucksbeatblue #whodey #nohof
Pete often said, "they'll put me in the hof after I die."
I always felt we never knew the real story. That we've spent the last 35 years dealing with only the facts they wanted us to deal with. My theory is that he was investigated for so long and so thoroughly and they found so much dirt on him that it was just a giant mess. And that the gambling scandal was a way to package it to the public in a way where his banishment could be justified. I felt that while MLB crucified him on the gambling, they actually protected Pete in a way, being that the gambling might have actually been the least of it. And in my head, he's still Pete Rose. Not banished Pete Rose. Just Pete Rose like I remember him when I was a kid. Thrilling player. One of the best I ever saw.
The HOF does not deserve Pete Rose.
He did it to himself. He was a great baseball player but a lying sack of crap. He disrespected and dishonored the game.
Nobody will ever have 4257 hits
hard to see anyone even get 4000 hits.
MLB can’t legalize Sports Betting AND keep Pete Rose out of the Baseball Hall of Fame.
Baseball and the baseball hall of fame are seperate entities. The board voted in favor that anyone banned for life doesn't get a vote to be in the hall.
Not the same.
Yes they can. It's up to the YOU to use your common sense and avoid gambling on baseball as a player, umpire, etc.
Baseball will never be forgiven for not giving Pete rose his just due. Now he is gone and they can never make it up to him.
He gambled AND he's a pedo .... but what do you care right? He can hit a baseball so he gets a pass.
They were never going to let him in while he was alive. They didn't want him to profit off it. It's almost a guarantee he will be in the next induction.
F Rose.
He lied for too long.
@@BERNARDO712yes he lied, but his records speak of his accomplishments. He has served his lifetime ban. He still deserves a plaque in Cooperstown with all the information good and bad
He continually lied about betting on baseball. He showed no contrition whatsoever. He didn't respect the game.
Classic case of the cover up was worse than the crime. If he owned it from the start, he would have made it to the HOF before he died
O.J. Simpson’s in the Hall of Fame and Pete Rose is not that sad
I mean OJ deserves to be in prison for his crimes but none of that had to do with his career or the integrity of the game. I can’t fathom anyone sticking up for Pete Rose tbh. He made a mistake and has to face the punishment. It is what it is
OJ is in the baseball hall of fame?
@@Belfast1982bruh..
He committed a crime UNRELATED to the sport or harm the integrity of the game.
Rose was a gambler AND a pedo.
Look it up.
@christopherwilliams2351 also, OJ wasn't convicted of anything so what grounds do they have to remove him? Being charged with a crime and being found not guilty?
Not saying he didn't do it
Dude's dead, let's put him in the Hall of Fame along with Shoeless Joe
He's the first baseball player I learned about when he was still with The Big Red Machine. I watched the game when he got the record. I cheered him on no matter what. He should have been in the HOF and FUC* anybody and everybody who made that impossible. PETE ROSE = BASEBALL.
He payed what he owed. It was a lifetime ban. It's a shame he didn't get in before he passed. He was my first hero. My childhood officialy has ended.
My belief is that not getting in while he was a live was punishment enough. There is no baseball hall of fame without charlie hustle. He personified professional baseball. You cannot tell the story of the history of baseball without mentioning Pete Rose.
Pete Rose, MLB All-Time hits leader, is dead at the age of 83. He said the record he was proudest of was playing in the most winning games in history. He apparently died in Clark County Nevada; That is where Las Vegas is located. So, I guess you can say he died in church. RIP.
Not something to talk about his death. Ok remember that when it comes to players not white ok.
Oj simpson was some kids hero i wasn’t alive back then. When he played for the bills and all that he did in those days i remember 90’s oj i was a kid then. And when he passed he was slaughtered in the media and on the internet.
If you’re banned for something you did like cheating betting on the game thats kinda the same thing you shamed the game you played for. Now all of a sudden a players past and what he did is not something to bring up in his death. We have to remember that and make sure it’s for all players. Latino players Blk players all players.
You can’t expect everyone to respect your guys when their people get smashed even after passing. Because of what they did. Fairness. Alotta people don’t want that but it’s here now forever.
MLB hid covered up n provided a fall guy for shoei atanai in his betting n gambling on sports.when everyone knows he was doing it.pete rose didn't bet on his team the red ever to lose so why was his gambling unforgivable.shameful pathetic MLB.
Regarding Pete and the Hall...Johnny Bench said, NO. That's good enough for me.
You can be sure that he was running up those stairs at full speed and diving head first under the pearly gates. Because he was Charlie Hustle. As kids, we had a poster of him on the wall at the foot of our bed, because he was my brother’s favorite player, even though we are from Philly and Pete was a Red. I didn’t care much for him until he became a Phillie, and one game, there was a weak little foul pop over near the dugout. Pete, playing first, took off after that pop up, and nobody thought he had a chance to get it. It was an inconsequential play in an inconsequential game, and though he dove and still couldn’t catch it, damn if he didn’t try his best. That was the moment I became a fan of Pete Rose. He was a real character, a vanishing breed, and he gave us all he had. Rest in Peace, Pete.
Don't put him in the hall of fame now. He should've been in. What he did as a manager had nothing to do with his playing career. R.I.P. Pete Rose
Charlie Hustle was my late fathers favorite player. I think it's a shame he's not in the hall of fame. I hope it happens posthumously.
Media and sports media should go to hell for how they treated Rose
Somewhere, commissioner Crud Selig is rubbing his hands in glee
He may never officially be allowed into the Baseball Hall of Fame but that's just a formality. Even though the Hall of Fame board of directors and leadership team may never allow his name to be listed there baseball fans around the world will still recognize him as one of the best to ever play the game period. His records, some of which will never be broken, transcends whatever title the National Baseball Hall of Fame wants to bestow on him or not. His legendary performances in the game of baseball are so great that by not including him in the Hall of Fame it actually diminishes the legitimacy of that organization. He was bigger than them. RIP Pete Rose.
Absolutely! Well said sir!
Pete Rose is the definition of what a Hall of Fame Baseball player is and was!!! Shame on Baseball!!
Pete Rose was the definition of a talented man whose demons got the best of him. Quite tragic.
Rest well Charlie Hustle
R.I.P. Pete Rose
Rose could have been forgiven by MLB but he never would take responsibility for his gambling. If he had apologized earlier had done some PSA’s about gambling addiction it would have helped. But the same hardheadedness that got him 4,256 hits wouldn’t allow him to do that.
I remember that Pete Rose was the most hated player in Shea stadium (due to the fight against him and Mets shortstop Bud Harrelson); but then gain back the respect of baseball fans during his 44-game hitting streak.
I also loved the story told by Mickey Mantle about how Whitey Ford and Mick made fun of Rose during an exhibition game, calling Rose "Charlie Hustle".
Classic!
To put it in perspective a little bit. Played 23 years. Played 96% of games for over 10 years. 303 career batting average as the all-time hits leader. Bonds 298. Biggio played over 20 years for Astros. Rose has almost 1200 more hits than Biggio. RIP "Charlie Hustle". Baseball Mount Rushmore.
Hope he knew Jesus.
Thanks lord for your peace
Thanks Lord for your salvation
I grew up in Arkansas, a lifetime Cardinal fan, but I always pulled for Pete except when he played St. Louis. He's the greatest player ever, his life is over, lift the ban and put him in the Hall of Fame.
My problem with Pete is the pedophile stuff. The gambling is what it is. A legend of the game and a truly messed up individual.
After 20 years of being in the ineligible list (2009) that's when MLB should had allowed the Sports Writers the opportunity to vote Pete Rose in or not in the Hall of Fame.
You got people in the hall who didn’t want to play with Jackie Robinson that speaks volumes and Pete is not in? From what i herd Pete Rose wasn’t a racist Mad Dog just said that on Espn I didn’t even know that without maddog saying it
I don't care about the HOF at all, Pete was simply my favorite baseball player ever, nothing can change that. For me, he's bigger than the HOF.
Outstanding Bob, justice tempered with mercy...perfect ! I'm 75 yrs.old, Pete was an is my guy. We're ALL human, we've ALL made mistakes. If the HOF was to vote to put him in, if I were his family, I'd tell them to stick it !!!....Tom
he served his lifetime ban put him in today
I remember watching him as a kid when he played for the Phillies he was an amazing player no one will break his hit record
I totally agree. If they put him in the HOF now, that WOULD be cruel. Hey Pete. You already were a HOFer. RIP.
I dont think cooperatown deserves him. Just put an asterisk next to HOF and call it a day.
Pete was a Trump fan. I'm surprised little Bobby Costas didn't refer to Pete as "brainless," too.
I have been angry at Costas for his liberal stances and his attack on Trump, and considered Costas small-minded and arrogant. That said, I have NEVER heard him WAIVER in his defense of Pete Rose - I wholeheartedly applaud him for that! In that same light, I can say today of both MLB and the Baseball HOF -- YES, I KNOW Rose is to Blame for his Banishment, Etc., but both institutions made $$$ and showed Fans, Rose NO Mercy - #FMLB & #FCooperstown!
love listening to flawed men talk about another man's flaws!
Love Bob Costas! Great person to speak on anything baseball!
Day 1 Trump should order MLB to lift the ban on Rose
Pete Rose admitted to sleeping with a kid, yet we're just gonna ignore that?
Agreed…beautifully said as only Bob Costas could say it
He brought the Phillies a World Series in 1980.
Watch , he will be in the HOF in the next Few years .
Put the man in the Hall... its ridiculous that he is not in
His ban was a lifetime ban, his life has ended. Put him in
He should be in the hall of fame. Period
Pete Rose not making it to the HOF made him way more money. It kept him relevant his entire life. It's bitter sweet.
The all time leader in hits and all time HR leader may never be in the Hall. It's crazy
He could have made millions more as an MLB manager had he not been banned from baseball. And his signature would have been worth more if he was in the Hall.
He was a great player who is worthy of the Hall. He's also probably the single most overrated athlete in American sports history. Great, but probably not top 50, and you'll constantly hear old heads act like he's one of the 10 greatest ever.
After a comment like that, the world is now a dumber place. My I.Q. dropped just reading it. He MOST CERTINALY WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST BASEBALL PLAYERS EVER...You can't argue his stats. What he done OFF the diamond is irrelevant. Pete Edward Rose is too good for the Hall of Fame.....
Well spoken by one of the best Bob Costas.
Throughout history, there are few truer things in this world than death, taxes and baseball. I think Bob would agree that institutions such as these endure on the principles upon which they are established, and rightfully so. There are however, the rare occasions where, as he put it, a mercy rule could be implemented. I believe we will see Pete Rose in The Hall. To continue to exclude him and others would just be wrong. Perhaps part of Pete’s legacy will end up him accomplishing this final feat by his passing, that all of his efforts could not attain while he was alive. History shall be watching…
I see both sides of the argument but the thing is he was punished enough and now he's dead
At this point you're only punishing the fans who universally acknowledge that he was a great baseball player
Best player ever. RIPete.🇺🇸
Baseball, the moral compass.
Really well said Bob
Thanks Bob.
The baseball hall of shame should be embarrassed with itself. Its just a personal grudge against pete Rose. They are willing to have bonds, clemens, and others go into the hall even though they cheated and break rules (hell, so did othani). But the hall and baseball are willing to make a dollar using his name or having all of his memorabilia displayed. Its a real shame and a joke. (Not to mention Joe jackson too)
bonds clemons not in the hof.
@jegca not yet, but they are on the ballot, aren't they? They are allow to be voted for.
Personally, I don’t think Pete Rose is not in the hall due to gambling…
That's the thing I always felt. That the gambling was used and that in a way, it actually protected Pete. That the noise from this gambling scandal was so loud that MLB just went with this as a way to get him out. But that the real reasons lurked beneath the surface. That their investigations concluded that he just wasn't a very straight-up guy in any respects. And if not for gambling, there were other scandals that could be unveiled.
@@bennylevine387 well said. 1000% true
I cannot stand that leftist Costas, but he was 100% correct here. He did an excellent job in this video.
And you complain about politics in sports
Wow. This guy must be MAGA 😅 these id,***ts politicize everything
The baseball hall of Fame doesn't count unless he is it period
Thanks for the memories Pete Rose. The epitome of a true athlete. Enough is a enough. Should be in the HOF!! Good bye. RIP...
MLB put Pete in HOF to shutup theses whining crying Red"s fan.😅 RIP Pete Rose.
How dare he bet on his OWN team! RIP Goat
His lifetime is over henceforth so it the ban...he bet on his team to win when he did bet. He broke the rules, but he didn't cheat and he didn't throw games. He lived and breathed baseball. It's time to give him his spot in the Hall.
The life of the sport. Not the man.

@@BERNARDO712Boztun fan or dodgerz ?
Threw away a legacy for a couple bucks
You're commenting on a video remembering his legacy. Wtf up.
No, HE threw away a legacy for money.
@@brianjacob8728 And your point is????
Betting on baseball was part of his legacy.@@brianjacob8728
MLB partners with gambling sites. Spare us your snotty and sanctimonious self-righteousness regarding gambling
Amen...Great take...He should be in...Baseball needs to wake the freak up
