wasn’t dirty. Fosse had chosen to block the plate without the ball in an exhibition game. Pete had every right to run him over under the rules of the time. Today, the run would be counted for catcher’s interference even if the guy held the ball.

      - Rose has a complicated legacy. Not a “good” guy, and he did some awful things. - Frank L - 10:25am 10/1/24

        well there’s sliding into a base and then there is needlessly taking out - jimbasil - 3:18pm 10/1/24
        Oh he competed fiercely, no doubt. That AS play was a bad rap though. That catcher should never have - Frank L - 4:08pm 10/1/24
