When asked to contribute to the Zach Robinson Memorial Banquet and Golf Tournament, Pete Rose not only pitched in, he showed up. His appearance was especially notable for those who remember seeing him play, and Abilene resident Frank Sheffield says, he was as good then as major league baseball's best players today.
But, the game just isn't the same now as it was when Frank saw Pete Rose take the field.
The baseball legend was the guest speaker at the banquet; a night folks like Frank Sheffield will not forget.
An autographed Pete Rose jersey was also given away at the event.
