Hagen Smith Strikes Out Seven Over Five Innings
Hagen Smith allowed one run on two hits and two walks with seven strikeouts across five innings on Tuesday against Double-A Rocket City. The left-hander generated 16 swinging strikes for the outing and did well to limit damage and be more efficient. Before this start, Smith had allowed either two or three runs in every outing since July 4. It was one of his best overall performances of the year and brings his season numbers to a 3.51 ERA, 1.24 WHIP, and 84:40 K:BB in 59 innings. He dominant 2.10 ERA in the first half, but has dipped to a rockier 4.59 mark in the second. The 2024 fifth overall pick has still shown plenty of promise and should be viewed favorably for the time being.
