The former gifted shortstop never hit more than six home runs in a season, so his plaque does not adorn the walls of the Cooperstown shrine because of what he did with his bat. The plaque is there because of what he did with his glove. "The guys who get into the Hall of Fame are the guys who hit the ball out of the park," Smith said after his election was announced earlier this year. "I think my going in reinforces the defensive aspect of the game." Elected to the Hall in his first year of eligibility, Smith didn't have to wait as long to be enshrined as second baseman Bill Mazeroski, another premier defensive player who received the needed votes in 2001 from the Veterans Committee 29 years after he retired from the game.

Among a record 46 Hall of Famers there to support him, Smith, who retired in 1996 and was elected immediately upon his eligibility (JET, June 17), recited a moving, creative acceptance speech that brought tears to the audience of 19,000 as well. Comparing his life to Dorothy's journey down the yellow brick road in the book The Wizard of Oz and holding a copy of the famed children's book in his hands, Smith recounted every critical aspect of his baseball life and detailed what made him a success: the mind to dream that the Scarecrow cherished, a heart to believe that the Tin Man ached for, and the c-c-c-c courage of the Lion to persevere. "Ozzie Smith was a boy who decided to look within, a boy who discovered that absolutely nothing is good enough if it can be made better, a boy who discovered an old-fashioned formula that would take him beyond the rainbow, beyond even his wildest dreams," said Smith, who is nick-named the Wizard and known for his trademark backflip he performed on the field.

Rubbermaid The creation of the United Sates Patented Reptilian® Design Series by Akadema Professional is a combination of technology meeting evolution. This revolutionary web, pocket, and near finger-less design has many features to separate it from the normal ball glove. The appearance and performance of the Reptilian® Design Series will make all other baseball gloves extinct. The Reptilian's near-fingerless design creates a natural air pocket which acts as a shock absorber for initial ball impact, making glove to hand transfer smoother and quicker. When the ball initially hits the glove, it makes a depression that allows the ball to sit longer in the glove. The near finger-less design also acts as a shovel for easier ground ball scooping. With virtually no breaking points within the pocket, the Reptilian® is designed to keep its unique shape longer than a regular glove. The Reptilian's leather looks and feels like snake scales which give better traction and grip for less ball spin. Taking the baseball world by storm
