Smith Goes Deep Twice in 9-2 Cardinals Win
Cardinals first baseman Darrell Smith left his imprint on his team's 9-2 win over the Tulsa Drillers. Smith went 2-4 with 2 home runs, while adding 6 RBI and scoring twice for Springfield in the contest. The win brings the Cardinals to 11-7, a promising start as the team looks to return to the playoffs.

With Springfield leading 5-2 in the top of the eighth, Smith hit a curveball from Ricardo Sanchez for a grand slam home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Cardinals ahead, 9-2.

"Solid game, solid win tonight," said a smiling Smith.
