Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, Rose garnered fame during his years with Major League Baseball from 1963 to 1986, during which he played most prominently with the Cincinnati Reds. During his time in the league, he earned the nickname “Charlie Hustle,” thanks to his never-ending ability to go all out during games.
