When word of Muhammad Ali’s death hit the news late Friday night, everyone took to social media to honor the former boxer.
Included in the mix, two of baseball’s biggest names… Hall of Famer Hank Aaron and the hit king, Pete Rose. Both of which shared time in the spotlight alongside Ali.
We've lost a giant in Muhammad Ali. He did things his own way and I am so appreciative to have known him for so long. God rest his soul.

“I’m sad of the passing of a friend, but so proud of the life the Champ lived,” Rose said via Facebook. “Ali was an American hero, a humanitarian, and simply the Greatest. He impacted more than sports and inspired more than young boxers.”
Well said.
