The National League's No. 1 vote getter in All-Star balloting, Rose sat out the classic with a broken thumb, spent 23 days on the inactive roster. Now that he has recovered, the Cincinnati management can only pray and do what it can to keep its zealous star whole-such as emphatically denying him permission to play in an amateur football league this fall...
