Pete Rose has been making a stir as part of the FOX studio analyst team this postseason. On Friday, he went viral.

Rose was duly made fun of by the studio crew, though it’s unclear if he even knows what a meme is. The MLB legend can look at some of these hilarious ones to familiarize himself with the concept.
