Outstanding. He's a great competitor, and the thing is, he got better as the game went on. I think he could have went nine (innings).

The problem is, he's got a football scholarship. So that's going to be held against him.

It's obviously nice to have him back. I think the bottom line with Jeff is he's a baseball player from head to toe. He's starting to learn how to play the game, and he does a lot of things to help us win.

(Tonight) was a good game. We made two bad pitches, and they took advantage of it. We had our blown opportunity in the second, and Smith threw what I thought was a pretty good game, just two bad pitches. Ironically, this was probably the best game he's thrown.

When he had to be good, he was good. He got better as the game went on. He's a great competitor - that's his No. 1 trait.
game good great
game great thing
He's hot, and I think the thing he's doing exceptionally well is swinging at good pitches. He's patient up there, and when he gets a good pitch, he hits it.
good hot thing
He hit a lot of tremendously long home runs. I can only think of one that hasn't been just an absolute bomb. He hit a lot of very legitimate, long home runs.
home absolute
He used to get himself out a lot of times. Now, he's hit several home runs on 3-and-0 counts. He's been very selective, swung at very few bad pitches.
home bad times
They're a top-notch program in the state. They're nationally recognized, and it's a great opportunity for us. It's a big game for us, a game where you can make a statement for yourself.
opportunity game state great big
Honestly, we don't even think about it. We're just trying to win games. Obviously him hitting is a big part of us winning.
games winning win big part
