Rose Tells A-Rod to Come Clean

Pete Rose praised Jason Giambi and Andy Pettitte for coming clean about using illegal substances, but adviced other athletes “Don’t do like A-Rod did.”

Rose’s comments were made in an interview with USA Today, saying he wished he had come clean like Pettitte and Giambi.

“We have to get these people to understand that if you make mistakes, people will forgive you if you come forward. Don’t do like I did. Don’t do like [Ryan] Braun did. Don’t do like A-Rod did.”
