EDGE Analysis
Smith entered the game to begin the fourth to relieve Sixto Sanchez after he struggled early on. The 33-year-old retired two of the first three batters he faced before allowing three straight singles which resulted in two runs for the Braves to put them up 6-4. It did not end there as Smith would serve up a three-run blast to Dansby Swanson to cap off a five-run inning. The right-hander has had a pretty horrible season as he owns a 6.84 ERA, and an 18:11 K:BB while also surrendering 33 hits in 26.1 innings of work.
