For this final episode of Season 1, we’re bringing you a conversation with a Hall of Famer! Ozzie Smith was elected to Cooperstown on the first ballot following an iconic 19-year career that included 15 All-Star selections, 13 consecutive Gold Gloves and a World Series ring. But The Wizard tells X that MLB stardom was far from certain for an undersized kid from South Central. Smith dives back into his early days with Dave Winfield in San Diego, then describes his quest to become known for more than only great defense in St. Louis and his impactful post-retirement work, sharing the challenges and lessons from each stage of his incredible career. You won’t want to miss it!
