I had the pleasure of watching Pete Rose play. Rip to one of the GOAT.

So did I . It was Seaver’s first time pitching at Shea Stadium after being traded to the Reds . Reds won . Had box seats on the 3rd base line - a gift from someone . Took a work buddy with me .
My Dad (RIP) was an avid baseball fan. Pete Rose and Johnny Bench were two of his favorites. In fact, he liked Bench so much I think Bench was the son my father wished he'd had. Instead of me. Bench and I are the same age. Baseball does strange things to normally rational people.
