Pete Rose is back — sort of.
The 81-year-old will return to a major league diamond soon, making his first appearance in Philadelphia in August since he was banned from baseball.
The sport’s all-time hits leader will be at the Phillies’ alumni weekend and be introduced on the field along with his former teammates from the 1980 World Series championship team on Aug. 7. That team’s shortstop, Larry Bowa, broke the news on Saturday night during the game broadcast and a Phillies spokesperson confirmed it to the Associated Press.Getty Images
In August of 1989, Rose was banned from the game following an investigation that found he bet on the Reds to win several games between 1985-87 while he was their manager.Share this article:
