Shoeless Joe Jackson, Pete Rose and Hall of Fame

Why were Pete Rose and 'Shoeless' Joe Jackson originally banned from baseball and not in the Hall of Fame?

Rose died in September 2024 at the age of 83, and attorney Jeffrey Lenkov filed a petition to remove Rose's permanent ban. In a letter to Lenkov, Manfred said the permanently ineligible list no longer applies to deceased former players.
