In the seven games for which he was honored, Smith went 11-for-25, batting .440/.548/.920 with three doubles, three home runs, six RBI and five walks. He added four stolen bases to boot, without being caught.
Two of Smith’s home runs and four RBI came Sunday in a win over the Inland Empire 66ers (Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim affiliate).
