NEW YORK (AP) – Pete Rose’s role at the All-Star game in Cincinnati will be determined by Major League Baseball and the Reds after they determine what other obligations the banned career hits leader has.
Rose began work as a studio analyst for Fox this month. The network will broadcast the game, which is being played in Rose’s hometown on July 14.
Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said Thursday that MLB is talking to the Reds about Rose’s involvement.
Rose agreed to a lifetime ban in 1989 after an MLB investigation concluded he bet on Reds’ games while managing the team. He has applied for reinstatement, but Manfred has not given a timetable for a decision.
