Pete Rose reportedly dropped his defamation lawsuit against attorney John Dowd on Friday.
According to the Associated Press, the suit was dismissed after the two parties mutually agreed not to proceed in court.
"Pete Rose and John Dowd have agreed, based on mutual consideration, to the dismissal with prejudice of Mr. Rose's lawsuit against Mr. Dowd. I am not permitted to comment further regarding the resolution of the matter," attorneys for both Rose and Dowd said in a statement, per ESPN.com's William Weinbaum.
Rose's initial complaint stemmed from comments Dowd made in 2015 on Pennsylvania radio station WCHE-AM.
