“Charlie Hustle & The Matter of Pete Rose” | Wednesday, July 24

On Sept. 11, 1985, Cincinnati Reds player-manager Pete Rose smacked a single to left-center and became the all-time MLB hits leader, surpassing Ty Cobb and cementing his place in history. Rose has stayed in the history books but with complicated headlines. The new four-episode, two-night docuseries will chronicle the life and career of the polarizing all-time hits leader who received a lifetime ban from the game after it was revealed he bet on Reds’ games during his time as manager and catch up with the 83-year-old Rose today as he embarks on a new bid for reinstatement in the MLB and a place in the National Baseball Hall of Fame. The first two episodes will premiere on HBO at 9 p.m. ET on July 24, followed by the next two episodes the next night in the same timeslot, but all four episodes will be available on Max on July 24.
