(Las Vegas, NV) – Baseball’s hit king, Pete Rose, has died at the age 83. Rose passed away Monday at his home in Las Vegas.
Rose accumulated 42-hundred-56 hits over a career that spanned 24 seasons, but he was banned from the sport after it was determined that he bet on games. He played most of his career for the Cincinnati Reds, but also spent time with the Philadelphia Phillies and Montreal Expos. Rose returned to Cincinnati where he finished his career as a player manager.
He was a 17-time All-Star, won three World Series and was the 1973 Most Valuable Player.
