"Go crazy, folks, go crazy." - JACK BUCK, Cardinals broadcaster's reaction to Ozzie Smith's unlikely home run during the 1985 NLCS against the Dodgers. Ozzie Smith provides one of the most memorable moments in Cardinal history by hitting a dramatic homer to win Game 5 of the NLCS. The round-tripper was the first left-handed home run of the Wizard's career, which spans 3,009 major league at-bats. |
