President Trump on Saturday called on baseball's Hall of Fame to open its doors to all-time hits leader Pete Rose, who was banned from the game for life for gambling.
Rose admitted to gambling on games in which he was involved as the Reds' manager in the 1980s. He said in an autobiography that he bet only on his team to win. Major League Baseball said he also wagered on games when he was a player-manager in 1985 and 1986.
At the time, Manfred said Rose admitted to him that he continued to bet on baseball and other sports. However, the commissioner said at the time that Rose's eligibility for the Hall of Fame was not in his purview and should be considered separately by that organization.
