    Shocking news tonight. Growing up the Big Red Machine was my team. I can still rattle off the famed starting lineup. One of without a doubt, if not the greatest team ever assembled, imho.
    R.I.P. Pete Rose, the Hit King.

    Taken just yesterday, Sunday.
    Rose even took a pic alongside Big Red Machine teammates Dave Concepcion, George Foster, Tony Perez, and Ken Griffey Sr.

    I had 3 of his rookie cards until my drug addicted uncle stole them and sold them. Mr. Rose was a great guy IMO. His competitive nature inspires!
