With the recent troubles of Steve Garvey, Wade Boggs and Pete Rose, baseball has taken on a slightly different look. Baseball no longer has that sweet, innocent look it once had.

It is hard for a baseball lover like myself to believe that one of the greatest players of all time could have degraded the very nature of the game by betting on his own team. When I read about the deal that Rose had made with Commissioner A.
