Following this story from Erin Couch and Dan Horn – https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/mlb/reds/2024/09/30/pete-rose-dies-henderson-county-nevada-cause-of-death/75460666007/

Cincinnati Reds legend Pete Rose was found dead at his home Monday in Clark County, Nevada, according to officials there.

The Clark County coroner’s office could not immediately be reached and the county spokeswoman who confirmed Rose’s death provided no other details, including the cause of death. ABC News reported that a family member found Rose and said the county medical examiner indicated there were no signs of foul play.

The ABC News report also said Rose, 83, had not been in the care of a doctor at the time of his death. Rose’s home is being examined and the cause of death remains under investigation.

Although there was no indication Rose had been seriously ill at the time of his death, Rose said in 2018 court filings connected to his divorce that he was “in poor health and disabled.” In that same divorce case, Rose’s lawyers said he struggled to walk, was on blood thinners and had undergone three heart procedures in five years.

Pete Rose, who died Monday at his home in Nevada, at a press conference in 2015 at the Pete Rose Sports Bar and Grill in Las Vegas.

Despite those health problems, Rose maintained a busy schedule and continued to travel all over the country, often to sports memorabilia shows. A Facebook post Monday from the Music City Sports Collectibles and Autograph Show in Tennessee featured a photograph taken Sunday of Rose sitting in a wheelchair, surrounded by several of his teammates from his days in Cincinnati with the Big Red Machine.

He died the next day. “Amazing that they all got to see each other one last time,” the post said.

Earlier this year, in April, Rose canceled an appearance at former UC basketball coach Bob Huggins’ annual fish fry charitable fundraiser in West Virginia “due to health reasons,” according to a post on the event’s Facebook account. “We’re sending Pete our warmest wishes for a full & speedy recovery,” the post said.

The Cincinnati Reds also confirmed Rose’s death in a statement late Monday. “Our hearts are deeply saddened by the news of Pete’s passing,” said Reds’ owner Bob Castellini. “He was one of the fiercest competitors the game has ever seen, and every team he played for was better because of him. Pete was a Red through and through. No one loved the game more than Pete and no one loved Pete more than Reds Country.”

Though the all-time hits leader began his record-breaking career in Cincinnati and won two World Series titles here, he had lived in Nevada for years, near Las Vegas, where he owned a now-closed bar and frequently made paid public appearances and signed baseball memorabilia.

  1. Great move by the Reds hiring Terry Francona! His proven leadership, with two World Series titles and a track record of developing young talent, is exactly what this Reds team needs. Francona's postseason experience and tactical expertise will be huge as the Reds aim to become contenders. Tito is also known for building a positive clubhouse culture, and his success in smaller markets like Cleveland shows he can excel with a limited budget. With his championship pedigree and veteran presence, Francona is the perfect choice to lead the Reds to the next level!

  2. Btw you are totally allowed to flip flop on Cincinnati teams when they do something right for once. I had zero expectations this would happen so why not trash the managers. This is an excellent move by this franchise which just never happens. If it results in a single postseason series win that’s more than I’ve seen in my 29 years here on earth. World Series is the goal but unless the reds hit a bengals tier random sb appearance it seems still a bit away.

  3. I lost count at how many Reds off-seasons I've gotten excited about over the last decade. Frankona or not, I'll believe it when I see it happen.
