Proud to announce that the Baseball Hall of Fame has accepted this book for inclusion in the Baseball Hall of Fame Abner Library. It is time for the MLB Owners, the Commissioner, and the Baseball Writers of America HoF Selection Committee get together and lift Pete's ban so the writers can elect Pete to his rightful place along side all his records and accomplishments between the white lines.into the Baseball Hall of Fame!

Millions of baseball fans have voiced opinion on why Pete Rose should be forgiven by Major League Baseball and elected to the Hall of Fame by the Baseball Writers of American Hall of Fame selection committee. Others, including many non-baseball fans prefer to keep Pete Rose in the Hall of Shame.

It is the intention of this author and other fans of Pete Rose to step up to the plate and go to bat for Pete based on his incredible statistics compiled "between the white lines" on the baseball field. This book chronicles his lifetime statistics, baseball records, fan opinions, and his contributions to baseball that have affected the lives of millions of young baseball players.

It is time for the Baseball Commissioner, the Major League Baseball Team Owners, the Baseball Writers of America, the independent Baseball hall of Fame and the biggest stakeholders of baseball - THE FANS - to come together and allow Pete Rose to take his rightful and deserved place in Baseball.

It is the Right Thing to do and the Right Time to do it.
