It’s been a rough 2 weeks… this arrived in the mail today and cheered me up a little. Catchers gear for my son also arrived today, cheering me up a little more.

In 1970, Pete Rose was on top of the baseball world.
That year, he was at the height of his popularity and performance:

• He won the National League batting title with a .348 average, one of his best seasons at the plate.

• He helped lead the Cincinnati Reds to the National League pennant, as the team’s fiery sparkplug and emotional leader at the start of the “Big Red Machine” era.

• In the 1970 All-Star Game, he famously scored the winning run by colliding with catcher Ray Fosse at home plate — one of baseball’s most iconic and controversial moments.

• He finished 7th in NL MVP voting, further cementing his status as one of the game’s elite hitters and fiercest competitors.

By 1970, Rose was more than a baseball star, he'd become a national symbol of hustle, intensity, and winning.
