Smith Bangs Out 5 Base Hits Friday, June 4th, 2027 It was a good day all around. Havana whipped Manhattan Beach 15-8 and Dan Smith displayed a hot bat, enjoying an outstanding 5-hit day at Stars & Stripes Stadium. "Some days, lady luck is on your side," he modestly told BNN reporters after the game. His manager told the beat writers otherwise, "His hitting wasn't luck today. It's his solid approach to hitting. Dan is focused, patient and he hits to all fields. The more solid at-bats you put together, the more success you're going to have." The 32-year-old first baseman for the Stogies collected 5 hits in 6 at-bats to get his name in the record book. Dan Smith hit a two-run home run off Lee Barker in the 1st, hit an RBI single in the 2nd, struck out in the 4th, hit a two-run single in the 5th, hit an RBI single in the 7th and singled in the 9th. This season Smith has hit at a .346 clip with 39 RBIs, 6 home runs and 28 runs scored. He has played in 50 games. |
