  • #62 - Pete Rose is No Longer Banned, Now What? w/ Girls at the Ballpark

    Recently, Pete Rose and the 1919 Black Sox had their lifetime bans revoked by MLB. It's a decision that has opened the door for Rose and the Black Sox to be elected into the Hall of Fame. But with this comes the context of baseball's self perceived purity, and potentially opens the door for the players from the steroid era to eventually be absolved.

    To discuss this topic, I am joined by Neha from Girls at the Ballpark. We get into the Hall of Fame candidacy, the gambling element in baseball, and how this impacts future HOF classes.
