As luck would have it, the Reds already had "Pete Rose Night" scheduled for Wednesday, one day after MLB commissioner Rob Manfred announced he was removing Rose and a dozen other deceased ball players from MLB's permanently ineligible list. The decision opens the door for Rose to get his first shot at the Hall of Fame in December 2027.

Cincinnati Reds manager Terry Francona said he feels honored to be part of Wednesday's ceremony honoring former teammate Pete Rose

Mike Schmidt: "There's a cloud.. ... I think if you posed the question to all the living Hall of Famers right now, I think it would almost be 50-50."
