John Smoltz, who is set to be inducted into Georgia Sports Hall of Fame on Feb. 25 will headline the second Evening with the All-Stars presented by the Georgia Southern Baseball Dugout Club on Feb. 2 at 7:15 p.m. in the Nesmith-Lane Building on the GSU campus. Following the dinner and silent auction, Smoltz will share experiences from his 21 seasons in the Major Leagues.
    The eight-time All-Star and 1996 Cy Young Award winner spent 20 seasons with the Atlanta Braves and was a key member of the big three pitching staff that won an unprecedented 14-straight Divisional Titles including the 1995 World Series. Smoltz's career began when he was selected by his home state Detroit Tigers in the 22nd round and it ended a year after he joined a list of 15 other names in 2008 with his 3,000 career strikeouts.
    Joining Smoltz on stage will be former Eagles Todd Greene and Everett Teaford. Greene holds the Georgia Southern school record with 88 home runs and spent parts of 11 seasons in the Major Leagues. The Augusta, Ga., native participated in the 2001 World Series with the New York Yankees. Teaford, an All-Southern Conference selection while at GSU, made his major league debut in 2011. He appeared in 26 games for the Kansas City Royals and posted a 2-1 record with a 3.27 ERA.
