Pete Rose and "Shoeless" Joe Jackson are now both eligible for baseball's Hall of Fame after their careers were tarnished by sports gambling scandals.

Rose agreed to be placed on the permanently ineligible list in 1989, and two years later the Hall of Fame passed a rule stating that those on the permanently ineligible list were not eligible for election into the Hall. As such, Rose has never appeared on a Hall of Fame ballot.

Per ESPN's Don Van Natta Jr., MLB commissioner Rob Manfred announced on Tuesday that Rose, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and other deceased players have been removed from the league's permanently ineligible list. Rose and Jackson were among those banned for gambling on baseball.
