Pete Rose Tries to Explain Why Astros’ Cheating Was Worse Than Him Betting On Baseball

Via NJ.com: 

“I bet on my own team to win,” Rose told Randy Miller of NJ.com. “That’s what I did in a nutshell. I was wrong, but I didn’t taint the game. I didn’t try to steal any games. I never voted against my team. I bet on my team every night because that’s the confidence that I had in my players. And I was wrong.

“But this (Astros’ situation) is a little different. It’s a lot different, actually, and I think that’s why the commissioner came down so hard.”

Pete Rose will never get into the Hall of Fame, no matter what he says or what anyone else does. 

Sorry Pete, that ship has sailed.
