Met him once in person and got him to sign a photo in an Expos uniform . He said, "I keep 'em around for the Canadians mostly." RIP Hit King Pete Rose.
Major League Baseball extends its deepest condolences to Pete Rose's family, his friends across the game, and the fans of his hometown of Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Montreal and beyond who admired his greatness, grit and determination on the field of play. May he rest in peace.
