    • Will Smith scores lone run in loss to Reds
      Will Smith went 1-for-4 and scored the Dodgers’ lone run in Saturday’s loss to the Reds.

      Advice: The 29-year-old backstop led off the second inning with a single and ultimately scored as Jason Heyward bounced into a double play with the bases loaded. That would be his only hit on the night — and one of just five hits that the Dodgers would muster in the contest. On the season, Smith is now hitting .297/.365/.477 with six homers and 33 RBI.

The All-Star catcher has batted just 3-for-19 over his past six games, though all three of the hits have gone for extra bases, including two that have left the yard. Smith is sporting a solid .298/.368/.482 slash line over 193 plate appearances on the season. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:49 am

    • Goes yard in win
      Smith went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 6-4 win over the Diamondbacks.

      Advice: Smith hadn't homered since May 1, going 8-for-43 (.186) with two doubles and six RBI over the 13 games between long balls.

With Shohei Ohtani occupying the designated hitter spot, Smith has received routine days off this year, though he's still the primary catcher over backup Austin Barnes.
