Homecoming for John Smoltz

Homecoming for John Smoltz

ATLANTA – While his Red Sox [team stats] teammates were stumbling around their hotel rooms yesterday morning, John Smoltz was in the kitchen of his home in suburban Atlanta, cooking pancakes for the kids.
He hopped into the pool to cool off. He played with the family pets, which consist of three dogs and a cat.
He wanted to cut the grass, but, well, two factors got in the way. One, the man who handles the landscaping at the Smoltz house was already on the case. And two, we’re not talking about your basic front lawn here: His house sits on 21 acres, and Smoltz says it usually takes him 7 hours to give his beloved grass the attention it deserves.
