Ozzie Smith was a Hall of Fame shortstop who earned the nickname "The Wizard of Oz" for his often spectacular plays on the field. Smith came up with the San Diego Padres in 1978 and quickly established a reputation for his defensive "wizardry," but he really rose to national prominence after being traded to the St. Louis Cardinals before the 1982 season. Fans delighted to Ozzie's signature somersaults when he took the field and continued to thrill to his slick defense during games. Smith's signature moment actually came at the plate with his game winning home run in pivotal Game 5 of the 1985 National League Championship Series versus the Dodgers. Announcer Jack Buck's "Go crazy folks," call of that shot is one of baseball's most famous highlights. Smith finished his career with the Cardinals, retiring after the 1996 season and was a first ballot inductee into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2002.

If a team has all its pitchers ejected in a game, a position player will have to take the mound, assuming they have enough position players left to finish a game. Generally speaking, catchers have the strongest, most accurate arms of the position players, so I would assume the backup catcher would come in and finish the game to the best of his ability. If a team is unable to put at least 8 players on the field, the game is forfeited.

Several states have no Major League baseball teams. Some that come to mind are: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut; Delaware, Hawaii, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, Phode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming..WHEW! Did I miss any..

It would depend on the time it takes the ball to get 80 yards. To find the speed, you take the distance (in this case, 80 yards) and divide it by the time it takes to get there.

If you take the time in seconds, you'll have the speed in yards/second. If you want to convert that to miles/hour, you would do this:

80 yards = 1/22 miles

The time in hours it took would be t/3600, where t is the time it took in seconds.

To find the miles/hour after you have the number of miles it traveled and the time it traveled, you would dived 1/22 by t/3600.

So let's say it took 2 seconds for the ball to travel 80 yards.

(1/22) / (2/3600) = 82 MPH

Baseball is mostly played in the U.S. and Canada. But, steam is picking up in other locals such as Latin America ,South America and Japan ... The future of baseball looks bright ...

That is not a correct term are u sure u spelled it right? If you meant Hbp that means hit by pitch

"Hot Corner" generally refers to 3rd base, but in softball 1st base can also be considered the "hot corner" as well due to the closeness of the bases and the ability to slap hit by some batters.

Football Actually a study by either Cornell or Stanford (can't remember) syas that Gymnast were the best athletes. According to the study no other Sport requires that high level of dexterity, balance, flexibility, strength, and endurance combined. What else set gymnasts in a class by themselves is that while most other sport relied on the body's natural ability, gymnastic is all about making your body to perform what is not naturally accustomed to do. Based on these and certain other fatcors lead the study to determined that gymnast were the best athletes.

My hypothesis is that the baseball will indeed go farther. To explain why well because it is smaller so it will gain more speed. While a softball is big it will not gain as much speed but could be hit far as well. thank you.

No. The only way it is a sacrifice is if the ball is hit in the air and the runner has to tag-up to advance home. The batter is only given an rbi because he did not sacrifice his at bat to score the runner from 3rd.

No, the only home runs that would count towards career home runs are thise hit in regular season games. Home runs for all star games and postseason games are kept as separate statistics.

There is a trampoline effect when a ball hits a bat. The warmer the bat, the more the bat is able to contract and expand to create this effect. The colder the bat, the less able it is to create the trampoline effect.

Participation in baseball at all levels of play has been steadily declining over the past two decades. There are currently about 11.5 million baseball players of all ages in the United States.

Yes, any age. If you were 5 years old and was good enough to play, they would let you.

Once a ball bounces into the stands, it's out of play. It doesn't matter whether or not it bounced back into the field. The fact that a player touched it also doesn't change anything. So the rule here is the same as it would be for any ball that went into the stands: * A fair ball that reaches the stands without having bounced on the field is a homerun. * A fair ball that bounced into the stands is a ground rule double.
