In St. Louis, however, few men stole the spotlight like <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/walk-off-home-runs-mlb-playoff-history\/\">Ozzie Smith<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While Smith's defensive skill was unforgettable, it's been over 20 years since we last saw the Wizard of Oz shine at shortstop. What happened to Ozzie Smith after he retired from professional baseball?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ozzie Smith's road to Major League Baseball<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"PHI@STL: Ozzie Smith does back flip on Opening Day\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/R6-BgGHQt24?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After spending the early years of his life in Alabama, Ozzie Smith and his family moved to Los Angeles. In California, the boy started to show the athleticism that would later make him famous.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In high school, Smith played both basketball and baseball. While he didn't earn any major league attention\u2014three of his teammates were drafted\u2014the shortstop did<a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20090801154824\/http:\/\/vault.sportsillustrated.cnn.com\/vault\/article\/magazine\/MAG1066503\/4\/index.htm\"> earn a partial academic scholarship<\/a> to Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo. That was hardly a ticket to success, however.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At college, Smith managed to walk onto the baseball team; when the starting shortstop broke his leg, Ozzie got his chance to shine. He would develop <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gopoly.com\/insideathletics\/hof\/Smith_Ozzie?view=bio\">into an All-American<\/a> and garner plenty of professional attention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the Detriot Tigers initially drafted him, Smith couldn't agree to terms with the club; he returned to school for his senior year and was then drafted by the San Diego Padres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Becoming a St. Louis Cardinals legend<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Ozzie gets standing ovation during final AB\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UWB5J-0zr8k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Early in his career, Ozzie Smith became involved in a bitter contract dispute with the San Diego Padres ownership. Eventually,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/cut4\/on-this-day-in-1982-the-cardinals-acquired-ozzie-smith-c266289070\"> they shipped the shortstop<\/a> to the St. Louis Cardinals; that move would change the course of his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In his first season in the Midwest, Smith helped the Cardinals <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/teams\/STL\/\">claim the World Series title<\/a>. Although the club captured two more pennants, they wouldn't win another championship; Ozzie, however, did his part in 1985, however, hitting <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=L4PB0XoLbm8\">one of the most famous home runs <\/a>in baseball history. Despite those falls at the last hurdle, their shortstop would become one of baseball's beloved figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During his career, Smith won 13 Gold Gloves and redefined what it meant to be a middle infielder. While he was never known as an offensive threat, he did develop into a capable batter, though. By the time he retired, the Wizard of Oz <a href=\"https:\/\/www.baseball-reference.com\/players\/s\/smithoz01.shtml\">had a .262 career batting average<\/a> with a .337 on-base percentage; his defense, and backflips, however, became the stuff of legends. His number was retired by the Cardinals in 1996, and <a href=\"https:\/\/baseballhall.org\/hall-of-famers\/smith-ozzie\">Smith headed to Cooperstown<\/a> in 2002.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where is Ozzie Smith today?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-twitter wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Legends<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TigerWoods?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@TigerWoods<\/a> says hello to <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Cardinals?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@Cardinals<\/a> Hall of Famer Ozzie Smith. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/PGAChamp?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#PGAChamp<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/tFTwvWNxWA\">pic.twitter.com\/tFTwvWNxWA<\/a><\/p>&mdash; PGA of America (@PGA) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PGA\/status\/1027386382791204869?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 9, 2018<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zpxDzbgusq8\">what <\/a><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zpxDzbgusq8\">The Simpsons<\/a><\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=zpxDzbgusq8\"> may lead you to believe<\/a>, Ozzie Smith hasn't disappeared into another dimension.
