Greg Vaughn and James Harris give a heartfelt shoutout to one of baseball’s realest—Pete Rose, aka "Charlie Hustle." Rose wasn’t just a player, he was the game. From tearing it up on the field in Cincinnati to racking up 18 All-Star nods, Rose set the bar for what it means to leave it all on the diamond. But here's the catch: why is this legend still kept out of the Hall of Fame?
Greg and James dive into Pete's insane 97% game participation rate, how he flexed on five different positions, and that unrelenting competitive fire that makes him a generation-defining athlete. And they don’t shy away from the controversy either. With today’s sports world getting cozy with gambling, they question why baseball’s all-time hit king is still sidelined.
This session is packed with laughs, real talk, and some tough questions on fairness in sports. Buckle up, because Greg and James are not holding back on why Pete Rose deserves his flowers—right now.
Tune in, share your thoughts, and celebrate the legend who gave everything to the game.
