Best Cincinnati Reds Ever: Pete Rose v. Don Gullett

First Round Matchup | No. 1 Pete Rose v. No. 16 Don Gullett

Rose:

Pete Rose may not be in the Baseball Hall of Fame, and it’s probably fair to say he’ll never get elected, but his record-setting numbers for the Cincinnati Reds speak for themselves. The all-time hit leader (4,256 hits) in Major League baseball history, Rose had a knack for getting himself on base. Rose led the league in hits seven times, led in doubles five times, had the highest batting average thrice and topped 200 hits 10 different times — a Major League record.
