Pete is infamous for good reason. And his illustrious rampage was rather well-known while he was still in his prime and while he managed.

What you write of here was not generally known. No doubt some, such as you, were aware, but, according to SI and others who kept track of such things on a current basis, it was not widely known.

Mr. Hustle was what most people saw and thought they knew, and it referred to on the field behavior, not in the alleys.
