There’s a reason for that. Game leadoff hitters don’t get an RBI unless they homer. Pete wasn’t a home run threat.
Pete Rose batted in the leadoff (first) spot in the batting lineup for 2,313 games over his career.
This accounts for the majority of his playing time, as he played in an MLB record 3,562 career games in total. Rose's ability to get on base consistently made him an excellent leadoff hitter, a role he filled for much of his career.
Southern miss 13 WKU 6. 10:30 Left in 3rd quarter
Tennessee was crushed by Ohio State in 2024. No more SEC Schools in the playoffs. Georgia crushed LSU in the SEC championship 50 to 30. LSU forfeits spot in SEC. You get blown out, out you go. What the P2 snobs won’t admit is that college football is mostly blowouts and very few close games. But don’t let the facts get in the way.
Ok, so he batted leadoff in 65 percent of his games. But being the leadoff man only really comes into play with no chance for an rbi (other than homer) in the first inning, ergo only 20 to 25 percent of those at bats....so really only 16 percent of the time... so if i add 16 percent to his rbi count he moves all the way up to a whopping 53rd just behind questionable HOFer himself brown paper bagwell (but wouldnt others increase as well, possibly even more)
