83-year-old MLB all-time hits leader and 3-time World Series champion Pete Rose passed away; his career was marred by a gambling-related lifetime ban from baseball.
Pete Rose, the all-time hits leader in Major League Baseball (MLB) with 4,256 hits, has died at 83. Rose, a 17-time All-Star, had a celebrated career primarily with the Cincinnati Reds, winning three World Series titles. However, his legacy was tainted by a lifetime ban from baseball due to gambling on games starting in 1989, which also barred him from the Hall of Fame. The cause of death has yet to be disclosed.
