In the latest chapter of a nearly three-decade saga, ESPN's "Outside the Lines" reported Monday that Pete Rose bet on Cincinnati Reds games while he was still a player for the team, directly contradicting previous statements Rose has made that he only placed bets as a manager.
Documents leaked in the report show that "on 21 of the days it's clear [Rose] bet on baseball, he gambled on the Reds, including on games in which he played."
The documents also provide a window into Rose's gambling habits. Rose's bets usually were $2,000 per game and were mostly on baseball.
