Smith started at first base and went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Wednesday's 7-2 loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Smith opened the game at first base then moved to right field when Kole Calhoun was removed after injuring his hamstring while running the bases. That wasn't the end of Smith's moves; he later moved back to first base and finished the game in left field. With Calhoun suffering his third hamstring injury of the season, right field could open up as a permanent home for Smith, who has moved around all year.
