While recounting his unlikely rise, 81-year-old former Cincinnati Reds star Pete Rose reignites his quest for reinstatement into the MLB more than three decades after receiving a lifetime ban for gambling.
Nicknamed "Charlie Hustle" for his down-and-dirty work ethic, Rose helps transform the Reds into the "Big Red Machine," leading them to back-to-back World Series titles in the '70s. But behind the scenes, his family life begins to fall apart.
After retiring as baseball’s all-time hits leader, a gambling scandal finds Rose banished from the sport for life.
Two decades after finally admitting he bet on baseball, Rose makes one last bid for reinstatement.
