Pro Merch Launches New Gear as Boone Brothers Renew the Boone Bowl in Yankees-Rangers Clash, 122.9 MPH Home Run, Memorial Day MLB Check-In, High School, College & More

A brand-new drop has just landed in Pro Merch, and it celebrates one of the most compelling storylines of the 2025 MLB season: the renewal of the Boone Bowl, as Yankees manager Aaron Boone faced off against his brother, Rangers hitting coach Bret Boone, for the first time in their post-playing careers.

This rare baseball family rivalry inspired a special Boone Bowl Merch Collection, now available in Pro Merch, commemorating the moment two baseball lifers clashed in the dugouts at Yankee Stadium.

The Boone Bowl Returns – And It’s Now in Pro Merch

This week, fans witnessed a unique chapter in baseball history as Aaron and Bret Boone brought their family rivalry back to life—not as players, but as managers on opposing sides. The last time these two shared a field, it was as All-Star-level infielders. This time, they squared off from the top steps of the Yankees and Rangers dugouts.

To mark the moment, the Boone Bowl Collection includes:

  • “Boone Bowl 2025” Rivalry Tee
  • Split Dugout Hat (Yankees navy front, Rangers red back)
  • Limited-Edition Boone Brothers Baseball Card Set
  • Custom Dueling Dugouts Long Sleeve

This is a limited-run release—available now exclusively in Pro Merch.


Oneil Cruz Crushes 122.9 MPH Home Run, Breaks Statcast Record

Pirates shortstop Oneil Cruz continues to redefine what’s possible at the plate. On Tuesday, Cruz launched a home run that left his bat at 122.9 mph, making it the hardest-hit ball ever recorded by Statcast since it began tracking in 2015.

The blast landed in the Allegheny River, and shattered Cruz’s own previous mark. The swing sent shockwaves through the league and has officially been etched into baseball history.


Memorial Day MLB Check-In: Surprises, Standings, and Predictions

As the 2025 season hits the Memorial Day milestone, it’s time to take stock of the standings and see who’s overachieving—and who’s falling short.

  • Detroit has surged to the No. 1 spot, overtaking two previously dominant National League clubs.
  • The Yankees, Orioles, and Mariners are all jostling for position in a crowded American League race.
  • The Mets and Dodgers, who met in last year’s NLCS, are gearing up for another high-stakes showdown this week that could shape the postseason bracket.

Our projections suggest that while some early-season favorites are slipping, a few dark horses are heating up just in time.

What Baseball Has Taught Us by Memorial Day 2025

Several lessons have emerged by the Memorial Day checkpoint in the season:

  • Prospects need time – The Red Sox called up top prospect Marcelo Mayer, and while the hype is real, early matchups against elite pitching will be a challenge.
  • Consistency matters – Teams that stay healthy and avoid bullpen meltdowns are gaining ground.
  • Power and speed rule – The league is seeing record HR and stolen base totals across both leagues.

Gordon High School Battles Past Tornado Damage to Reach Regional Finals

In a story that transcends sports, the Gordon High School baseball team in Texas is rewriting what it means to persevere. After tornadoes damaged much of the area, including parts of the school, the baseball team managed to reach the regional finals.

“It’s bigger than baseball,” said head coach Ligon West.
“To see our student-athletes—from football to basketball to baseball—step up in the middle of chaos is something I’ll never forget.”

Senior Landon McDonald summed up the experience:

“It’s been hard to focus on baseball with everything going on, but we’re still out here, and we’re playing to win.”

Their run has become a symbol of strength for the entire Gordon ISD community.


Mets and Dodgers Ready for High-Stakes NL Clash

This week brings a playoff-caliber showdown between the New York Mets and the Los Angeles Dodgers, the two teams that battled in last year’s National League Championship Series.

Both teams have World Series aspirations, and this series could preview another October collision. Eyes are on the pitching duels, bullpen depth, and which stars will deliver in the clutch.


Oregon Ducks Begin Big Ten Tournament With Win

The Oregon Ducks kicked off their Big Ten baseball tournament run with a strong victory over Michigan State. While their tournament debut had a rocky start, they responded quickly and are poised for a deep run.

Meanwhile, their upcoming matchup with Nebraska has been rescheduled. Fans looking to follow the action live should check for updated game times and streaming details.


New Jersey Team Becomes Road Warriors Without Home Field in 2025

A baseball team in New Jersey has taken on the ultimate challenge: competing in the 2025 season without a true home field. They’ve become true “Road Warriors”, traveling for every game, using buses as locker rooms, and leaning into a gritty, travel-first mentality.

“It’s frustrating, but we’ve built toughness,” said one team member.
“It’s a baseball lesson—how to adapt, how to survive.”

This storyline echoes baseball’s past, from the Kansas City Athletics to the Futures Collegiate Baseball League. It’s a powerful example of the sport’s tradition of resilience.


Commissioner Rob Manfred Sparks Controversy Over Hall of Fame Debate

Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred reignited one of the sport’s longest-running debates: eligibility for the Baseball Hall of Fame, particularly as it relates to players banned from the game.

The comparison was drawn back to 1920, when Kenesaw Mountain Landis became baseball’s first commissioner and handed down decisions that still echo today.

The current discussion involves not just history, but how the game chooses to remember its most controversial figures. The debate continues among fans and writers alike.

🏈 The NFL in the Olympics: Our 2028 Flag Football Dream Team — and the Gear to Match – NFL Vintage Cap Collection – Dynasty Fantasy Football

History is about to be made — and it’s got cleats on.

For the first time ever, flag football will debut at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, and yes, NFL players will be allowed to compete. Let that sink in. We’re talking the world’s top football talent, repping the red, white, and blue on an international stage. No pads. No helmets. Just speed, skill, and swagger.

At Pro Merch, we’re already building our dream team — and planning the sideline fits to go with it.


🌎 The Global Stage, NFL-Style

Back in October 2023, the Olympic committee officially approved flag football as one of five new sports for the 2028 Games. Fast forward to now, and the NFL is all in, giving players the green light to take their talents from Sundays to the Summer Games.

Flag football has been gaining serious momentum — from youth leagues to global tournaments — and this Olympic moment is about to send it into orbit. Imagine Mahomes no-look passes on a global broadcast. Or Tyreek Hill running routes against international DBs. Yeah, we’re tuning in.


🇺🇸 Our 2028 USA Dream Flag Football Squad

If we’re putting together the most electric flag football team possible — under the one-player-per-NFL-team rule — here’s who’s getting the call:

  • Patrick Mahomes (Chiefs) – Who else do you want slinging the ball? Mahomes’ quick release and improvisation make him a flag football cheat code.
  • Tyreek Hill (Dolphins) – In a no-contact game? You may as well give him six every snap.
  • Micah Parsons (Cowboys) – Speed, instincts, and versatility — Parsons is built for this format.
  • Christian McCaffrey (49ers) – Slippery routes, soft hands, and big-play ability out of the backfield.
  • Sauce Gardner (Jets) – Sticky coverage and swagger. We want that Island energy on the Olympic turf.
  • Lamar Jackson (Ravens) – Rotation QB or gadget play weapon. Defenses won’t know what hit ‘em.
  • Justin Jefferson (Vikings) – One-on-one matchups? Good luck.
  • Derwin James (Chargers) – An enforcer with finesse — ideal for flag football’s fast pace.
  • T.J. Watt (Steelers) – Disruptor. Enough said.
  • Amon-Ra St. Brown (Lions) – Grit, precision, and hands you can count on.

The squad would be unstoppable — a perfect storm of finesse, football IQ, and elite athleticism.


📣 Don’t Just Watch the Game. Wear It.

As we gear up for this new chapter in football history, it’s time to dress the part. Whether you’re catching every Olympic highlight or hitting the field with your own flag team, Pro Merch has the NFL gear you need to rep your squad in style.

🔥 Vintage team hats with official embroidered logos

🏟️ This Isn’t Just a Moment. It’s a Movement.

The NFL hitting the Olympic stage isn’t just cool — it’s game-changing. It opens the door for younger generations to fall in love with the sport in a new way. It gives football a global footprint. And it reminds everyone watching that American athletes aren’t just strong — they’re strategic, fast, and born for this.

The countdown to the 2028 Olympics is on. Until then, we’ll be rocking the gear, dreaming up the rosters, and celebrating every win — on and off the field.

3 Running Backs to Buy in Dynasty Fantasy Football (May Edition)

Dynasty season never really ends — it just changes gears.

With the 2024 NFL Draft in the rearview, OTAs getting underway, and fantasy managers itching to make their next big move, May is the perfect time to reassess your running back room. Whether you’re reloading for a title run or rebuilding for the long haul, the best dynasty managers stay a step ahead of the market.

At Pro Merch, we’re not just about repping your squad — we’re about helping you win leagues too. So let’s talk three running backs you should be buying right now in dynasty fantasy football.

And yeah, we threw in some 🔥 gear links so you can look the part while dominating your league.


1. Kendre Miller (New Orleans Saints)

🚨 Dynasty Buy Alert: Undervalued with RB1 upside

Kendre Miller’s rookie year didn’t go as planned — but that’s the exact reason he’s a smart buy in May.

Injuries and a crowded backfield buried him behind Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams, but don’t forget: Miller was a third-round pick with elite burst, contact balance, and a nose for the end zone. He flashed in limited touches and has the profile to command a larger role as soon as 2025.

Kamara turns 29 this season and carries a $29M cap hit in 2025. Translation? The runway is wide open.

If you’re playing the long game, scoop up Miller now while his value is quiet.

👉 Shop New Orleans Saints Gear


2. Tyjae Spears (Tennessee Titans)

🏁 Explosive. Efficient. Evolving.

Spears looked electric in his rookie season — 4.5 YPC, over 50 catches, and multiple splash plays that showed he’s not just a change-of-pace guy. He’s a full-blown weapon.

And now that Derrick Henry is in Baltimore? The path is clear.

Even with Tony Pollard in town, Spears should stay heavily involved — and if he outplays expectations (as he often does), don’t be surprised if he leads this backfield by midseason. Dynasty is about trends and traits, and Spears has both: pass-catching upside and elusiveness in open space.

He’s a win-now and win-later piece. Buy accordingly.

👉 Rock Tennessee Titans Merch


3. Ray Davis (Buffalo Bills)

📈 Rookie Value, Veteran Profile

The name might not pop off the page — yet — but if you watched Ray Davis at Kentucky, you know he’s a downhill grinder with surprisingly soft hands and pro-ready vision.

Buffalo doesn’t invest lightly at RB. They drafted Davis for a reason, and while James Cook is still the 1A, Davis profiles as the kind of runner who could carve out goal-line and short-yardage work immediately. Add that to a solid third-down skillset and you’ve got one of the sneakiest value buys in rookie drafts.

He’s the kind of back who might not start fast, but come November? You’ll be glad you stashed him early.

👉 Buffalo Bills Gear Is Here


💡 Dynasty Strategy Tip: Buy Before the Buzz

The secret to dynasty dominance isn’t waiting for breakout games. It’s making moves before the masses catch on. All three of these backs are affordable now — but once camp hype and preseason reps roll in, values spike.

This is the time to get aggressive. Target the upside. Trust the tape. And build a roster that hits hard now and next season.


🎯 Dress Like You Play to Win

And while you’re building that dynasty juggernaut, don’t forget to gear up like a pro. At Pro Merch, we’ve got you covered with:

  • Vintage NFL hats with embroidered team logos
  • Bold team gear that reps your ride-or-die players
  • Fresh drops every month for diehard fantasy GMs like you

NBA Draft Withdrawals: College Basketball’s Future Hangs in the Balance

The decisions from college stars like Milos Uzan and Alex Condon to either stay in the 2025 NBA Draft or return to school are about more than personal development—they’re seismic shifts that could reshape the entire college basketball landscape next season. Programs are holding their breath as key players evaluate their draft stock. Uzan’s return to Oklahoma, for example, would immediately elevate the Sooners into Big 12 contenders, while Condon’s choice could turn a middle-of-the-pack team into a legit Final Four threat.

These draft choices impact recruiting, rankings, and championship expectations, making this one of the most thrilling off-seasons in years. As the 2025–26 season outlook begins to take shape, fans should be watching these moves closely—and representing their college or NBA teams with authentic gear from Pro-Merch.

His calm dominance and relentless attack mode are proving that OKC is no longer the future—they’re the now.

On the Eastern side, the New York Knicks are in a gritty showdown against the Indiana Pacers. After Tuesday’s heartbreaking finish, the Knicks look to bounce back at Madison Square Garden tonight.

No QBs Allowed: Peo Merch’s 25 Non-Quarterbacks Ready to Dominate the 2025 NCAA Season

Let’s face it — quarterbacks steal the headlines. They’re the face of the program, the Heisman favorites, and the stars of most Saturday highlight reels. But if you really know football, you understand that the game is won and lost in the trenches, on the sidelines, and across every inch of the field — not just behind center.

As we look ahead to the 2025 college football season, we’re shifting the spotlight to the top 25 non-quarterbacks set to make serious noise this year. These are the game-changers, playmakers, and defensive nightmares who don’t need to throw a single pass to impact the outcome. And if you’re a true fan, there’s no better time to rep your school with officially licensed NCAA gear — check out the latest here: Pro-Merch NCAA Collection.

Why Non-QBs Matter More Than Ever

The modern college game is more dynamic than ever. Yes, elite quarterbacks matter — but a dominant edge rusher can flip a game in one series. A versatile wide receiver can stretch a defense in ways that change an entire game plan. A lockdown corner can erase a top target. These athletes don’t need a playbook full of passes to take control — they just need a few opportunities to shine.

With transfer portal chaos, high-profile recruiting classes, and new NIL deals reshaping rosters, we’re seeing more parity and talent spread across the board. And while fans chase QB storylines, the best teams are built around a core of elite non-QB performers.

So who’s ready to rise?

25 Non-QBs You’ll Be Hearing a Lot About in 2025

Here’s a breakdown (in no particular order) of the most electric, impactful, and must-watch non-quarterbacks this season. From dominant linemen to versatile skill players, these are the names you’ll want to keep on your radar — and maybe even on the back of your jersey.


1. Travis Hunter – CB/WR, Colorado

One of the most versatile players in the country. Hunter is a two-way threat with NFL talent and serious highlight-reel potential every week.

2. Harold Perkins – LB, LSU

A freakish athlete with speed off the edge and sideline-to-sideline range. Expect him to lead the Tigers’ defense in just about every major category.

3. Emeka Egbuka – WR, Ohio State

With Marvin Harrison Jr. in the NFL, Egbuka is now the go-to threat in Columbus. Crisp route runner, explosive after the catch.

4. Braelon Allen – RB, Wisconsin

A downhill runner with NFL size who will be the heartbeat of the Badgers’ new-look offense.

5. Caleb Downs – S, Alabama

One of the smartest, most complete safeties in the country. Always around the football.

6. TreVeyon Henderson – RB, Ohio State

When healthy, Henderson is one of the most explosive backs in the country, with breakaway speed and big-play potential on every touch.

7. Dallas Turner – EDGE, Alabama

A relentless pass rusher who’ll anchor the Tide’s front seven. Expect double-digit sacks and first-round draft buzz.

8. Brock Bowers – TE, Georgia

A rare blend of power, speed, and hands at tight end. Bowers is the ultimate mismatch nightmare and a red-zone beast.

9. Malaki Starks – S, Georgia

A field general with elite range and instincts. He’s the centerpiece of one of the nation’s toughest secondaries.

10. Xavier Worthy – WR, Texas

Lightning-fast with elite route running, Worthy stretches defenses and can score from anywhere on the field.

11. Raheim “Rocket” Sanders – RB, Arkansas

A bruising back with deceptive speed, Sanders will be the workhorse for the Razorbacks as they lean on a ground-heavy attack.

12. Cooper DeJean – CB/KR, Iowa

A ballhawk who doubles as a dynamic returner. DeJean’s playmaking ability gives Iowa’s defense and special teams an edge.

13. Donovan Edwards – RB, Michigan

Equally dangerous as a runner and receiver, Edwards brings versatility and speed to the Wolverines’ powerhouse offense.

14. Rome Odunze – WR, Washington

Big-bodied, physical receiver who’s a favorite red-zone target and consistent deep threat. Expect a breakout statistical year.

15. Barrett Carter – LB, Clemson

Fast, physical, and highly instinctive. Carter leads the Tigers’ linebacker corps and plays sideline-to-sideline.

16. Mason Graham – DT, Michigan

A dominant interior lineman who eats double teams and disrupts the run game with explosive power.

17. Kool-Aid McKinstry – CB, Alabama

Sticky coverage, elite footwork, and a knack for deflections make him one of the most feared cornerbacks in the SEC.

18. Xavian Sorey – LB, Georgia

A dynamic athlete with freakish range, Sorey is expected to break out as a key leader of Georgia’s front seven.

19. Ja’Tavion Sanders – TE, Texas

A polished receiver in a tight end’s body, Sanders is a go-to target for third downs and a monster after the catch.

20. J.T. Tuimoloau – DE, Ohio State

A disruptive force off the edge, Tuimoloau is capable of taking over games with his burst and motor.

21. Brian Thomas Jr. – WR, LSU

A vertical threat with strong hands and elite size, Thomas is set to take on WR1 duties and flourish in LSU’s high-powered offense.

22. Tyler Nubin – S, Minnesota

Veteran leadership and big-play potential define Nubin, who is one of the Big Ten’s most complete safeties.

23. Zion Tupuola-Fetui – EDGE, Washington

When healthy, “ZTF” brings elite pass-rushing ability and leadership to the Huskies’ front line.

24. Jaydn Ott – RB, Cal

Ott is a do-it-all back who provides the Golden Bears with consistent production as both a runner and receiver.

25. Malik Nabers – WR, LSU

A dynamic route runner with speed to burn. Nabers will be a top target in the SEC and is poised for a monster year.


Get Ready for Kickoff — And Gear Up Right

With these 25 non-QB superstars set to light up the 2025 season, make sure you’re showing your school spirit loud and proud. Whether you’re backing a defensive beast or a highlight-machine wideout, Pro-Merch has your gameday gear covered.

Are the Oakland A’s Really Playoff Contenders in 2025? Let’s Talk Baseball’s Biggest Surprise and How to Rep the Pro Merch Green and Gold with Pride Collections

The 2025 MLB season is off to a wild start, and one of the biggest shockers so far? The Oakland Athletics are suddenly in the playoff conversation — and they’re not just flirting with a Wild Card spot, they’re competing like they belong in October.

Let that sink in.

At Pro-Merch, we’re not just following the A’s momentum — we’re amplifying it. Whether you’re a die-hard fan or just now jumping on the Green and Gold bandwagon (no judgment — there’s always room), now’s the time to rep Oakland with style.

🟢 The Early Verdict: Oakland’s Rebuild Is Ahead of Schedule

It’s not just luck. The A’s have quietly assembled a hungry, gritty roster that plays with nothing to lose — and that’s making them dangerous. From breakout performances on the mound to surprising clutch hitting, Oakland is executing the fundamentals, grinding out wins, and silencing the skeptics.

What makes this season especially exciting:

  • Strong bullpen performances keeping them in close games
  • Emerging stars stepping up when it matters most
  • Team chemistry that can’t be faked or forced
  • A coaching staff that’s getting the most out of young talent

The result? A team that feels like it’s peaking earlier than anyone predicted — and doing it without flashy contracts or big market buzz. This is pure, old-school baseball with a modern twist.

And if this is how they’re playing in May… just imagine what October could look like.

Oakland baseball has never been about glitz. It’s about grit, history, and resilience. From the “Moneyball” era to the underdog playoff runs, the A’s are a symbol of doing more with less — and 2025 is proving once again that heart, hustle, and hustle can’t be bought.

Wearing A’s gear this year means more. It means believing in the rebuild. It means supporting a team that’s battling the odds and demanding respect. It means representing a city that knows how to fight — and never backs down.

If you’re all in on this season’s Cinderella story, then wear that green and gold like you mean it.

⚾ In Memoriam: Honoring the Creighton Baseball Community

While basketball buzz builds, we also pause to acknowledge a tragic chapter in the NCAA world. The death of Chris Gradoville, former Creighton University baseball standout and Director of Baseball Operations, was a heartbreaking moment for the athletic community.

As the legal case surrounding his death comes to a close, we remember not only his contribution to the sport but also his passion for the student-athletes he mentored. His legacy lives on in every player who steps onto the field with purpose and pride.

Flag Football Joins the Olympics: What It Means for the Game, the NFL — You & Pro Merch

In a groundbreaking move that blends the global appeal of the Olympics with America’s most beloved sport, flag football is officially headed to the Olympic Games. The International Olympic Committee (IOC) approved flag football as one of five new sports for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, signaling a powerful new chapter for the game — and offering fans a whole new reason to rep their favorite team.

At Pro-Merch, we’re already fired up. Whether you’re a die-hard NFL supporter or a casual fan excited to see your sport take the global stage, this is your moment to gear up and show off your team pride in a whole new way.

🏅 The Rise of Flag Football on the World Stage

Flag football has long been seen as the accessible, fast-paced cousin of traditional tackle football. It retains the strategic depth and athleticism of the NFL while reducing contact and emphasizing agility, teamwork, and quick thinking.

Now, with its Olympic debut in 2028, flag football will be introduced to a massive global audience, many of whom will be experiencing the sport for the first time. That’s not just good for the game — it’s great for fans, too. Here’s what to know:

  • Non-contact format makes it inclusive and adaptable for all ages and genders
  • Smaller teams (5-on-5) create high-scoring, fast-paced games
  • No helmets or pads — just speed, skill, and strategy
  • International teams will include countries from across the Americas, Europe, and Asia
  • The NFL is expected to be involved, with potential current or former players participating

This Olympic spotlight is the ultimate recognition that football is going global — and flag football is leading the charge.


🌍 NFL + Olympics: A Dream Team in the Making

The inclusion of flag football in the Olympics also opens the door for NFL athletes to potentially represent Team USA. Imagine watching NFL stars like Tyreek Hill, Justin Jefferson, or Jalen Hurts bringing their elite skills to the Olympic arena in front of millions around the world.

This also means we’ll likely see NFL branding, sponsorship, and fan gear take center stage in a way never seen before at the Olympics. As international fans fall in love with the game, NFL merchandise will become more than just team spirit — it’ll be global fashion.

Want to be ahead of the wave? Now’s the time to stock up on NFL jerseys, caps, hoodies, and gear to represent your team — whether you’re at a watch party, training for your own flag football league, or just showing your pride.

📰 Pro Merch 2025 NBA Playoff Report


🏀 Knicks vs. Pacers – Old Rivals, New Era, Same Stakes

The Eastern Conference Finals are heating up with a classic showdown: New York Knicks vs. Indiana Pacers—meeting this late in the playoffs for the first time in 25 years.

🔸 The Knicks, fresh off eliminating the Celtics in a statement Game 6 win, rely on Jalen Brunson’s control, Karl-Anthony Towns’ range, and Tom Thibodeau’s iron-fist coaching.
🔸 The Pacers are deeper, faster, and more unpredictable—powered by Tyrese Haliburton’s precision passing and a 10-man rotation that wears opponents down.

📈 Key Stat: Indiana has a playoff eFG% of 58.3%—on pace for an all-time NBA record.

👀 Players to Watch:

  • New York: OG Anunoby – the X-factor both offensively and defensively.
  • Indiana: Pascal Siakam – leading scorer and matchup nightmare.

🎯 Prediction: Pacers in 6. Their versatility, speed, and ability to push tempo could give them the edge over a Knicks team with heavy mileage on its starters.

Celebrate Baseball’s Greatest Hustler: Pro Merch Debuts Official MLB & Vintage Collection Featuring Pete Rose as MLB Lifts Ban on 16 Other Previously Ineligible Figures

Baseball fans, the moment has arrived. With Major League Baseball’s historic reinstatement of Pete Rose and other legendary figures, Pro Merch is proud to launch a power-packed collection of official MLB and vintage Cincinnati Reds gear, highlighted by exclusive tribute items honoring the man himself—Charlie Hustle.

From the Cincinnati Reds to the Philadelphia Phillies and Montreal Expos, Pete Rose left his mark on every ballfield he stepped on. Now, you can celebrate that legacy with gear that’s as iconic as the player.


🌟 Pete Rose: A Legend Across Three Teams

Pete Rose was more than just a Reds icon. While he started and ended his legendary 24-year career in his hometown of Cincinnati, Rose also brought his trademark intensity and record-breaking play to two other franchises:

  • 🔴 Cincinnati Reds (1963–1978, 1984–1986) – Home of the Big Red Machine, where Rose won two World Series titles (1975, 1976) and became MLB’s all-time hit leader.
  • Philadelphia Phillies (1979–1983) – In Philly, Rose helped lead the team to its first-ever World Series championship in 1980 and was a fan favorite for his relentless hustle.
  • 🔵 Montreal Expos (1984) – Though his time with the Expos was brief, Rose collected his 4,000th hit in Montreal, becoming only the second player in history to reach that milestone.

No matter the city, no matter the uniform—Pete Rose played all out, all the time.


🖼️ New Release: Pete Rose “Hit King” Veterans Stadium Silk Posters

Commemorate the swing that shook the world: Pete Rose’s legendary hit at Vet Stadium that surpassed Ty Cobb’s all-time hits record. Now immortalized in our exclusive indoor/outdoor silk posters, this moment lives on in crisp, museum-grade clarity.

✨ Poster Features:

  • Premium heavyweight 200 gsm semi-gloss paper with a silk finish
  • Water and scratch-resistant for long-lasting display
  • Ideal for both indoor fan caves and outdoor patios
  • Available in 19 sizes with horizontal, vertical, and square formats
  • UV ink printing for vivid, photo-realistic detail

Whether you watched that historic hit live or heard about it from your baseball-loving grandfather, this poster is a piece of American sports history made for your wall.


Not Just Pete Rose: MLB Lifts Ban on 16 Other Previously Ineligible Figures

With the historic decision to remove Pete Rose from the permanently ineligible list, Major League Baseball has extended that same reversal to 16 other individuals—many of whom had been blackballed for over a century. This sweeping move marks a profound shift in how the league is reckoning with its past.

🕵️‍♂️ The Black Sox Scandal Revisited

Eight of those reinstated were members of the infamous 1919 Chicago White Sox, later dubbed the “Black Sox,” accused of conspiring with gamblers to throw the World Series. Among them:

  • “Shoeless” Joe Jackson – A batting legend with a .375 average during the 1919 Series, Jackson was banned despite limited evidence of wrongdoing. He died in 1951, never having seen his name cleared.
  • Eddie Cicotte – One of the top pitchers of his era, Cicotte confessed to taking part in the fix but later recanted. His 14-year career included a stellar 2.38 ERA.
  • Happy Felsch, Chick Gandil, Fred McMullin, Swede Risberg, Buck Weaver, and Lefty Williams – All played roles in or knew of the fix. Weaver notably refused to participate or accept money but was still banned for staying silent.

🧾 Other Early 20th-Century Bans

Beyond the Black Sox, several other players and figures banned for gambling or related controversies have also been reinstated:

  • Joe Gedeon and Gene Paulette – Neither played for the 1919 White Sox, but were banned after being linked to gamblers.
  • Benny Kauff – Banned not for gambling but for a separate car theft case, despite being acquitted in court.
  • Lee Magee, Phil Douglas – Both implicated in schemes to fix games in the 1910s and 1920s.
  • Jimmy O’Connell and Cozy Dolan – Banned for trying to bribe a Phillies shortstop to lose games in 1924.
  • William Cox – The only owner on the list, Cox was banned in 1943 after admitting to betting on his own team, the Philadelphia Phillies.

⚖️ What It Means for Baseball History

Commissioner Rob Manfred’s decision effectively rewrites a century of baseball exclusion. For Pete Rose, it reignites the conversation about Cooperstown. But for the others—long deceased—it’s a symbolic act of historical revision, giving overdue recognition to complex legacies once buried under scandal.

This unprecedented move doesn’t guarantee Hall of Fame induction, but it removes the formal barriers that blocked all 17 individuals from even being considered.
