MLB commissioner Rob Manfred has removed Pete Rose, "Shoeless" Joe Jackson and 14 other dead players from the league's permanently ineligible list. The decision comes 36 years after Rose was initially banned and 104 years after Jackson was banned.

Major League Baseball on Tuesday removed Pete Rose and “Shoeless” Joe Jackson, two of the sport’s most famous players who were previously kicked out of baseball for gambling on the game, from the league’s permanently ineligible list.

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.
