ozzie smith

Ozzie Smith once gave Major League Baseball a peek inside his cozy and very modest St. Louis, Missouri area home.

It was a chilly October afternoon at Busch Stadium in St. Louis, Missouri 37 years ago today that Ozzie Smith hit one of the most unlikely home runs in baseball history. The result was a Cardinal playoff victory and St. Louis fans "going crazy".

I saw that December 26 is Ozzie Smith's 67th birthday. That brought to mind the fact that it was 40 years ago that Cardinal fans got the best early Christmas present ever. EV-ER.
