PHOENIX — Will Smith’s first major-league save in 2014 was memorable because he had no idea he earned one. He faced one hitter, Pittsburgh’s Pedro Alvarez, and struck him out after Milwaukee starter Kyle Lohse dominated for 82/3 innings.
“Everyone was congratulating me, and I’m going, for what?” Smith said Friday night after his second career save. He threw a perfect ninth in an important 2-1 victory against the Diamondbacks at Chase Field.
