What is the extent of pete rose's ban?

Answer 1

In a negotiated settlement with (then) Commisioner Bart Giamatti, Pete Rose agreed to a "permanent" ban on any association with Major League Baseball. The agreement allowed Rose to seek a re-instatement, but he has never done so. There is no indication that the present Commisioner, or any future one, would look kindly on any such application; as Rose not only repeatedly bet on Baseball, including his own team, but completely lied about doing so for years afterwards. The ban basically means that Rose can not appear in any function involving MLB, including celebrations, reunions, or sponsored events. No team, not even the Reds, can officially introduce Rose when he comes to the stadium, or even formally retire his number.
