INTERNEWSTIMES.COM – Despite a brief tenure with the Montreal Expos, Pete Rose left a lasting impact on the team and its fans. His time in Montreal was marked by both on-field brilliance and off-field controversy.

Rose joined the Expos in 1984, a year that saw him achieve a significant milestone – his 4,000th career hit. The feat, achieved against his former team, the Philadelphia Phillies, cemented his place in baseball history.
Beyond the numbers, Rose’s presence in the Expos clubhouse was appreciated by his teammates. He brought a wealth of experience and a competitive spirit, even at the twilight of his career.
However, Rose’s legacy is forever tainted by a lifetime ban from baseball in 1989 for gambling on games. Despite this, his time with the Expos remains a cherished memory for many fans, a reminder of a talented player who left his mark on the team, albeit briefly. (Red)
