Pete Rose will be in Philadelphia next month for the first time since he was banned from Major League Baseball for betting on baseball.

In August 1989 Rose agreed to a lifetime ban from baseball after being found guilty of placing bets while he was a player and manager.

The career hits leader will be introduced on the field with many of his former teammates from the 1980 World Series champion team.

During Saturday night's broadcast of the Cubs-Phillies game, Bowa said that Pete Rose would be at the event. A person confirmed the statement.

In 2015, Rose's application for MLB reinstatement was rejected.
