But there's no evidence all-time hits leader wagered against Reds
Pete Rose, Major League Baseball's all-time hits leader who was banished from the sport for gambling, bet on games he played in, according to records obtained by ESPN unveiled in a Monday report.
In televised and website reports, ESPN displayed copies of pages from a notebook sealed under a court order that outlined wagers made by Rose from March to July of 1986, in the final months player-manager Rose took the field before serving strictly as a bench boss for the Cincinnati Reds.
