One of the most controversial moments in MLB All-Star Game history came in 1970 when Pete Rose barreled into catcher Ray Fosse to score the winning run for the NL in Cincinnati. 45 years later, Fosse says his body still hurts from the collision.
“My body hurts. My shoulder still hurts,” Fosse told the AP. “There was not anybody at the time to say, ‘Don’t play.’ I continued. That’s something that I take with a lot of pride.”
X-rays did not show any injury, which is why Fosse continued to play after being crushed by Rose.
