====1970 All-Star Game==== {{Main|1970 Major League Baseball All-Star Game}} Brand-new [[Riverfront Stadium (Cincinnati)|Riverfront Stadium]] had been open for only two weeks on July 14, [[1970 Cincinnati Reds season|1970]], when Rose was involved in one of the most infamous plays in All-Star Game history. Facing the [[Los Angeles Angels|California Angels]]' [[Clyde Wright]] in the twelfth inning, Rose singled and advanced to second on another single by the [[Los Angeles Dodgers]]' [[Billy Grabarkewitz]]. The [[Chicago Cubs]]' [[Jim Hickman (1960s outfielder)|Jim Hickman]] then singled sharply to center. [[Amos Otis]]'s throw went past [[Cleveland Indians]] catcher [[Ray Fosse]], as Rose barreled over Fosse to score the winning run. Fosse suffered a fractured and separated shoulder, which went undiagnosed until the next year.<ref name=Miller>{{cite web|last=Miller|first=Scott|title=Fosse still aching, but not bitter 43 years after All-Star Game collision|url=http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/scott-miller/22721779/fosse-still-aching-but-not-bitter-43-years-after-all-star-game-collision|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130713193424/http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/scott-miller/22721779/fosse-still-aching-but-not-bitter-43-years-after-all-star-game-collision|url-status=dead|archive-date=July 13, 2013|work=CBS Sports|date=July 11, 2013|access-date=July 13, 2013}}</ref> Fosse continued to hit for average and finished the season at .307, but with diminished power. He had sixteen home runs before the break but only two afterwards. He played with the Indians until the 1972 season, but never approached his first-year numbers.<ref>The Daily Star July 12, 2003</ref> The collision also caused Rose to miss three games with a bruised knee.<ref name=Miller/>
