Pete Rose was posthumously removed from Major League Baseball’s permanently ineligible list Tuesday, making the all-time hits leader eligible for induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Rose had been exiled from the sport since 1989, after he was found by then-commissioner Bart Giamatti (yes, the father of actor Paul Giamatti) to have been betting on his team’s games while he was manager of the Cincinnati Reds. Rose died Sept. 30, 2024, at age 83.

Like Patrick Mahomes marching the Kansas City Chiefs on another game-winning drive, Xavier Michael Babudar — aka the “ChiefsAholic” superfan — can be counted on to put numbers on the board. A court on Monday in Oklahoma sentenced the serial bank robber to a 32-year term in state prison that will run concurrently with his federal sentence of 17½ years. After Babudar serves the federal term — without the possibility of parole — he will be transferred to state prison to spend 14½ more years.

When Bud Black was fired as manager of the Colorado Rockies on Sunday, the last limb of the acclaimed Mike Scioscia coaching tree was snapped off and stacked on the mulch pile. Joe Maddon remains out of work after being fired by the Angels in 2022. Scott Servais was canned by the Seattle Mariners last year. Ron Roenicke hasn’t managed since 2020.

In a brutal bit of irony, in-custody deaths in Los Angeles were brought to the forefront by a 2023 case in which neither the County Sheriff’s Department or county hospitals would acknowledge that an inmate was in their custody when he died. Stanley Wilson Jr., a Stanford graduate and former NFL defensive back with the Detroit Lions, died either before, during or after he was transported from the downtown Twin Towers Correctional Facility to the Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk on Feb.

Chet Lemon, joyful World Series hero and L.A. Fremont High product, dies at 70. He was best known for the '84 Tigers WS champs, but also starred with the White Sox and was part of an L.A. pipeline for Black players in the '60s and '70s. Obituary: https://t.co/vkrZFXH8hT
NFL player Stanley Wilson Jr. died in custody but neither the L.A. County Sheriff or County Hospital will take responsibility. His mom works to preserve his memory, and will camp outside the L.A. Men's Central Jail with other this Mother's Day weekend. https://t.co/T7021mNJkv
38 years ago the Lakers filmed an instructional video at an L.A school. Byron Scott, 26, took a 15-yr-old student into a janitor closet and tried to have sex with her, she alleges in a lawsuit filed last week. Scott says he thought she was 18. https://t.co/uINLMVdfyG
