Here you can purchase all manner of items invoking baseball’s past and present.#2 Rose still attracts a large following, and generates more conversation than other baseball greats. He has not been a constant fixture, however. In recent years, he has been more impatient and irked by the lack of progress made toward reinstatement, and has decided to come back up this year.#3 Rose is a legend in his own town, and has become a sort of legend in baseball. He is not avuncular, and he is not grandfatherly. He is genuine and to admire, and there is a sense of mystery about him.#4 The induction weekend in Cooperstown remains largely the same, with fans being welcome to come and get signatures from the many baseball greats.
