You're looking at an X-ray of a Mizuno PR4192 bat, commissioned by Pete Rose specifically for his 1985 chase of baseball's all-time hits record. Inside, clear as day, is a piece of foreign material, about 6 inches long, and the diameter of a nickel. This is the story of that bat. More »

Rose and his Playboy-bound girlfriend did Howard Stern this morning. It wasn't pretty. They touched on Charlie Hustler's endowment, his stamina, and his semen-encrusted bedroom wall. Don't worry: if you don't click through, I won't be upset. [via SbB] More »

No list of All-Star memories is complete without Pete Rose's decision to lower the boom on Ray Fosse, single-handedly destroying the young catcher's career in 1970. Unfortunately for the enemies of hustle, that's not quite how the story goes. More »

The Cincinnati Museum Of Art is offering up some of these silly looking "Pete Rose" portraits by famed pop artist Andy Warhol to fans of the disgraced former baseball player. The Museum commissioned the work in 1985 to coincide with Rose breaking Ty Cobb's all-time hit record and is celebrating that misguided decision this Wednesday night by offering up signed and framed prints to lucky fans for $500 a pop.

With all the hullabaloo around Pete Rose's "admission" yesterday that he "bet on the Reds every night" — a story so overblown that even Katie Couric was talking about it, chatting with beer pong specialist Armen Keteyian — Keith Olbermann, who did the Rose interview along with Dan Patrick on ESPN Radio, chimes in to point out that not only did Pete not say anything new, he was less confessing than he was clarifying.

The week began with violence and bravado, but has concluded in ignominious regret. Yes, it's time for the "sorry" roundup. And while none of these apologies rise to the level of that of that of the great Pete Rose, rest assured that all of the participants are nonetheless terribly filled with shame. More »

We had a lot of fun with the Pete Rose "I'm sorry" autographed baseball story from Tuesday, thanks, as usual, to our commenters. You folks took our eight-yard slant pass over the middle and turned it into an 80-yard TD run, if you'll excuse a football analogy in the midst of a baseball post. For those one or two of you just checking in on this tale, Pete Rose at one time signed about 300 baseballs with the words "I'm sorry I bet on baseball — Pete Rose", and was subsequently shocked — shocked — to learn that some unscrupulous dealer was set to auction them without his knowledge. Rose told ESPN's Stephen A. Smith on Monday that those balls were never meant to be sold. More »

By now you've probably heard about the "apology balls" story, in which Pete Rose is supposed to have signed 300 baseballs with the words "I'm sorry I bet on baseball — Pete Rose", and is set to sell them at $1,000 a pop. That's what the New York Daily News said on Monday, anyway, in a rather glaring cover story that cast Rose as at most the devil, and at the least, a greedy schmuck. More »

We don't mean to imply that Joe Montana might not always put his son's basketball games ahead of money — or even that his PR team might come up with the most family-friendly excuse (one the NFL still hasn't endorsed) possible once he skipped out on an event because he wasn't paid enough — but we were looking around at some other matters Montana has had on his agenda of late.

A confession: We can't stand Pete Rose. Ignoring his loutish tendencies in his personal life or his complete lack of understanding of a human being not named Pete Rose — and that includes Pete Rose Jr. — we just can't fathom how anyone could forgive him baseball's one unforgivable sin. Not only should the guy be banned from baseball, he shouldn't be allowed within 50 miles of a stadium unless the place is about to blow up and he's the only one who knows which wire to cut. And even then, we'd rather him just call it in. More »

We have always liked Baseball Prospectus: It's just a bunch of scrappy guys with laptops who realized it was possible that everyone in charge of baseball was an idiot. But now that they've gone mainstream, they've grown up from crunching stats on the back of Outback napkins to rubbing elbows with the very establishment they've always hammered. (Which is fine. We hope to do the same thing someday.) This week, they score an interview with famous shitty gambler Pete Rose. Choice quotes from Charlie Hustler after the jump: More »
