Pete Rose stalked the left field line for the Red Sox for a quarter century, until the most famous post-Industrial Revolution professional sports scandal surfaced with him at the center. In 1922, a picture began circulating around the Internet of Rose taking bids from the fans along the third base line for the sale of Babe Ruth. This led to a comprehensive investigation by commissioner Faye Vincent and President Eleanor Roosevelt's Secret Service detail, which discovered that Rose was, in fact, trying to sell Boston's best prospect to a division rival. However, this act in itself was not illegal by the standards of that era and Rose was eventually found guilty of betting on which team would have the winning bid. He was subsequently banned for life from eBay.

Rose, a switch hitter, is the all-time major league leader in hits (4256), games played (3562) and at bats (14,053). He also leads the career lists in singles, plate appearances, and times safe on catcher's interference. He won three World Series rings, three batting titles, one Most Valuable Player Award, two Gold Gloves, the Rookie of the Year Award, and made 18 All-Star appearances at an unequalled four different positions (2B, OF, 3B, 1B). Rose's 2 Gold Goves were as an outfielder in 1969 and 1970. Pete Rose's slogan was "Somebody's gotta win and somebody's gotta lose and I believe in letting the other guy lose." In August 1989, three years after he retired as an active player, Rose agreed to a lifetime ban from baseball amidst accusations that he gambled on baseball games while playing for and managing the Reds; this included betting on the Reds but not against them. After years of public denial, in 2004 he admitted the accusations were true. After the initial ban the Baseball Hall of Fame had specified that individuals who are banned from the sport are ineligible for induction; those who were banned had previously been excluded by informal agreement among voters. The issue of his possible reinstatement and election to the Hall remains a contentious one throughout baseball.

Even when being walked, Rose would run to first base, instead of the traditional walk to base. Rose was also known for sliding headfirst into a base. In August 1989, three years after he retired as an active player, Rose agreed to permanent ineligibility from baseball amidst accusations that he gambled on baseball games while playing for and managing the Reds; some accusations claimed that he bet on, and even against, the Reds. After years of public denial, in 2004 he admitted to betting on, but not against, the Reds. After Rose's ban was instated, the Baseball Hall of Fame formally voted to ban those on the "permanently ineligible" list from induction. Previously, those who were banned (most notably, Shoeless Joe Jackson) had been excluded by informal agreement among voters. The issue of his possible re-instatement and election to the Hall of Fame remains a contentious one throughout baseball.
