Pete Rose, banned from baseball, joins Fox Sports as analyst

Pete Rose may be banned from Major League Baseball, but apparently that won't keep him from talking about the national pastime for someone else.

The veteran All-Star known to legions of fans as "Charlie Hustle" will serve Fox Sports as a guest studio analyst, the 21st Century Fox unit announced Saturday. He will provide analysis for pregame and postgame shows as part of regular-season MLB games on both Fox and Fox Sports 1, and will also contribute to original studio programs on Fox Sports 1 including "America's Pregame," "MLB Whiparound" and "Fox Sports Live."

"It's obvious that Pete has a vast knowledge of baseball history, but what is equally impressive is how well informed and opinionated he is about the game today," said John Entz, executive vice president of production and executive producer at Fox Sports.
