The move means Rose and Jackson could now be considered for inclusion in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. Rose and Jackson were both involved in sports betting controversies. Rose was found to have violated MLB’s Rule 21, which bars players from betting on the game and was placed on the ineligible list in 1989.
Pete Rose, who was banished from Major League Baseball for gambling on the game, has been removed from the league's permanently ineligible list and could be a contender for the Hall of Fame, MLB announced Tuesday.
