Pete Rose and "Shoes" Joe Jackson were restored Tuesday by Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred, which made both qualify for the sport's Hall of Fame after damaging their careers amid the sports gambling scandal.

Manfred announced Tuesday that he is changing the league's policy on permanent non-qualifications, saying the ban will expire at the time of death. Rose and Jackson were among the 17 players recovered on Tuesday.

Rose's permanent ban He was lifted eight months after his death, and the Cincinnati Reds will honor the career leader of baseball on Pete Rose Night.

Tuesday's return to its original state also included Arnold "Chicken" Grand, Eddie Sicott, Oscar "Happy" Fells, Fred McMurlin, Charles Swedish "Sweden", George Buck Weaver and Claude Lefty Williams. They were part of the 1919 Chicago Black Socks scandal, accused of bribing from gambling concerns to intentionally losing the World Series that year. The scandal eventually led to the appointment of the first baseball specialist Kenesaw Mountain Landis, who banned implicated White Sox players.

William Cox, Benny Kauff, Joe Gedeon, Gene Paulette, Lee Magee, Phil Douglas, Albert J. "cozy" Dolan and Jimmy O'Connell were also restored.

Under the current rules of the Hall of Fame, the earliest Rose or Jackson may be in 2028.

Rose agreed to a permanent ban on August 23, 1989, after an investigation conducted by Major League Baseball concluded that Rose had repeatedly bet on the Reds since 1985-87 to become a player and manager of the team, which violated long-standing MLB rules.

Ross first applied to restore the status quo in September 1997, but then-in-command Bud Selig never ruled the requirement. Manfred, who rejected a petition for recovery in 2015, said: "Ross did not provide reliable evidence for reconfiguring his life."

Rose died on September 30 At 83 years old, A new petition was filed January 8 by Jeffrey Lenkov, the lawyer representing Ross. Lenkov and Ross' daughter Deer meet Manfred on December 17.

Ross' supporters include U.S. President Donald Trump, who said he Plan to pardon the Rose after death. Manfred discussed Rose with Trump when he met in April, but he did not reveal the details of their conversation.

Manfred wrote in a letter to Lenkov: “It seems to me that it is necessary to determine how the phrase “permanently unqualified” is interpreted in accordance with the purpose and policy of Rule 21, which is: (1) Protecting the game: (1) Persons who make the synthesis of the sport by revealing the participation of others, and by making this impact that it can make this impact, and in a future way.

In my opinion, once a person dies, the purpose of Article 21 has been paid. Obviously, one no longer poses a threat to the integrity of the game with us. Furthermore, it is difficult to conceive a punishment that is more effective than a punishment that lasts for life without lasting life. List. ”

Rose scored 17 All-Star games in his 1963-86 career, holding records in hit percentage (4,256), matches (3,562), Bats (14,053), plate appearances (15,890) and singles (3,215). He was the NL Rookie of the Year in 1963, the MVP in 1973 and the MVP in 1975 World Series. He is a three-time NL batting champion, and he broke Ty Cobb's previous hit record of 4,191 shots set in 1905-28.

Cincinnati Reds owner Bob Castellini said Tuesday he was “thank you” for the decision to restore Rose.

"Peter is one of the greatest players in baseball history and the Redskins nation will continue to celebrate him as we always do," Castellini wrote in a statement.

The Philadelphia Phillies said in a statement Tuesday that Rose was a member of five seasons and it supported the decision to restore him, calling him "one of the greatest players in gaming history" and noting his contribution to the team's 1980 World Series Championship.

Jackson, a professional batsman of .356, died in 1951. He remains one of the most well-known names in baseball, partly because of his portrayal of Ray Liotta in 1989's Dream Realm.

According to rules adopted by the Hall Board in 1991, no one on the permanently unqualified list can be considered an election hall. Jackson was twice considered by the Baseball Writers' Association, but received only 0.9% in 1936 and 1% of the vote nominated in 1940.

Ross was too late to get back to his original state, so he didn't consider the BBWAA vote. If not on the permanent list, from 1992 to 2006, Ross will be eligible in the ballot. He wrote in 1992 with 243 votes (3.4%) of 7,232 votes, and the number of votes does not count.

Hall of Fame President Jane Forbes Clark said in a statement that players affected by Manfred's ruling will be considered.

"The National Baseball Hall of Fame has always insisted that anyone removed from a list that permanently does not qualify for a Hall of Fame will be eligible for consideration in the Hall of Fame," she said. "The Major League Baseball decided to remove the individuals of the deceased from a list that permanently qualifies, which will allow the Hall of Fame candidate qualifications for such people now consider."

Without a ban, both players are eligible for the classic baseball era in the hall, which will be considered next at the December 2027 conference and those who contributed the most to the sport were before 1980.

A 10-person history overview committee elected eight vote candidates with approval from the lobby board of directors, and at the winter meeting, 16 members considered the ballot and required a 75% or higher vote. Committee members include Hall of Fame members, team executives and media/historians.

Although many believe Ross should be in the hall based on his professional number, voters are also asked to select players in the hall and are told to consider a player's "integrity, sportsmanship, character and contribution to the game". Rose and Jackson critics believe that this clause should be kept out.

In addition to gambling, Ross faces other off-field problems.

because Defamation lawsuit Ross allegedly committed legal rape in the 1970s. Ross admitted to having sex with a man he believed he was 16 years old, at the time of consent age in Ohio, according to court documents. However, court documents say she is still young. Ross was married at the time and had two children.

The libel lawsuit was filed by Ross against investigator John Dowd, whose reports about Ross' gambling made him banned from using MLB. Morality (Dowd) also claimed in a 2015 radio appearance that during spring training, a colleague of Rose, “young girls” went to the players. Morality has repeatedly referred to Rose's interaction with these girls as "statutory rape." Ross denied the claim.

Ross also signed a guilty lawsuit on April 20, 1990, reaching two counts of filing a false tax return, and he admitted that he had not reported $354,968 during the four-year period. Ross was sentenced to five months in prison by U.S. District Judge S. Arthur Spiegel in Cincinnati on July 19, 1990. He was also fined $50,000 and ordered to perform 1,000 hours of community service as an assistant to a physical education teacher among inner-city youth in Cincinnati, a one-year probation period. The first three months of probation will be spent in the house halfway through. Ross also reimbursed $366,042 for internal tax services.
