The Cincinnati Reds are paying tribute to Pete Rose on Wednesday night, a day after baseball’s career hits leader was posthumously removed from the major leagues’ permanent ineligibility list.

Pete Rose was taken off Major League Baseball's permanently ineligible list, but one former player doesn't want him in the Hall of Fame.

Pete Rose, 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson and 14 others were posthumously removed from MLB's ineligible list, making Hall of Fame induction possible for all of them.

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.

It was more than 100 years ago that Shoeless Joe Jackson was among eight Black Sox banned from baseball for throwing the 1919 World Series. It’s been more than 35 years since Pete Rose suffered the same fate after betting on the sport as a player and manager of the Cincinnati Reds in the mid-1980s.

There have been polarizing reactions to the situation, but many former Major League Baseball players have been happy about it. That includes David Wright, a New York Mets legend, who spoke with Andy McCullough of The Athletic, saying it's “great” that Rose was reinstated.
