If you've been watching the Chicago Cubs vs. Cleveland Indians World Series, you might recognize a local face and voice.

That's Hall of Famer and Lansing native John Smoltz. He's been serving as a commentator for Fox Sports along with Joe Buck during the Series.

Smoltz, a 1985 Waverly grad, spent 20 of his 21 career seasons with the Atlanta Braves. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York, in July this year.

The World Series continues tonight with Game 6 from Cleveland, starting at 8 p.m.
