The Atlanta Braves will pay tribute to former pitcher John Smoltz on Friday, June 8 by inducting him into the Braves Hall of Fame and retiring his uniform number. The uniform number retirement will occur in a pregame ceremony that night before the Braves take on the Toronto Blue Jays.

This is fantastic. Smoltz is one of my favorite players of all time.
I'm excited for this. It will be the 9th number retired by the team (10 including the MLB wide retirement of Jackie Robinson's 42).
