Fawn Rose was so overcome with emotion on Tuesday after MLB commissioner Rob Manfred had taken her dad off the permanent ineligible list that she became teary-eyed.

To some, it’s a long-overdue gesture of closure that Pete Rose deserves. The post Son of MLB Commissioner Who Handed Lifetime Ban to Pete Rose Breaks Silence on Rob Manfred Reversing Decision appeared first on EssentiallySports.

NEW YORK (AP) — Commissioner Rob Manfred announced Tuesday that Pete Rose, Shoeless Joe Jackson and other players permanently banned by the sport would have their statuses restored at death.

For 35 years, Major League Baseball hit king, three-time National League batting champion and three-time World Series champion Pete Rose has been ineligible for the Hall of Fame. But he (and the legendary "Shoeless," Joe Jackson of the Chicago "Black Sox") will finally be eligible for enshrinement in Cooperstown.

The Reds paid tribute to Pete Rose, a day after baseball’s career hits leader was removed from MLB's permanent ineligibility list.
