Riverfront Stadium, in Cincinnati, Ohio.
According to MLB, Ty Cobb had 4,191 career base hits. Rose got his 4,192 base hit at Riverfront Stadium in Cincinnati on September 11, 1985 off of Eric Show of the San Diego Padres.

However, in 1981, independent research found a game Cobb played in 1910 where he got 2 base hits but was credited with 4. MLB has refused to address the discrepancy, with then Commissioner Bowie Kuhn stating that "The passage of 70 years, in our judgment, constitutes a certain statute of limitation as to recognizing any changes.". While MLB continues to state that Cobb had 4,191 career base hits, most reference books and encyclopedias put Cobb at 4,189. Two of the largest and most popular Baseball references, Baseball Almanac and Baseball Reference, each list Cobb with 4,189 career hits.

If Cobb had 4,189, Rose's 4,190th came on September 8, 1985 at Wrigley Field in Chicago off of Reggie Patterson of the Cubs.

Where does Betsy Ross live now?

Her full name was Elizabeth Griscom Ross. She died on the 30th January 1836. Ross's body was first buried at the Free Quaker burial ground on South 5th Street. Twenty years later, her remains were exhumed and reburied in the Mt. Moriah Cemetery in the Cobbs Creek Park section of Philadelphia. In preparation for the United States Bicentennial, the city ordered the remains moved to the courtyard of the Betsy Ross House in 1975; however, workers found no remains under her tombstone. Bones found elsewhere in the family plot were deemed to be hers and were re-interred in the current grave visited by tourists at the Betsy Ross House.
