[RealGM Wiretap]

Pete Rose is getting back in baseball while he awaits a ruling on his reinstatement request, as a television analyst.

The career hits leader, who agreed to a lifetime ban from the sport 26 years ago, has been hired by Fox as a guest studio analyst.

"We informed baseball of Pete's audition. Baseball was informed every step of the way," Fox spokesman Dan Bell said Saturday.

...also, I love how Fox calls it "Baseball" - so condescending, like an organization of that size is simply kids playing stick ball at the park.
