13 Will Smith RP

Smith yielded a solo home run but still secured his ninth save in Sunday's 6-5 win over Cincinnati. He struck out one batter.

Smith came into the ninth inning to protect a two-run lead and was able to get the job done despite allowing a Kyle Farmer homer with two outs. His ERA is up to 3.29, but he's now 9-for-9 in save chances on the year.

Smith pitched a perfect inning against the Reds on Friday to earn his eighth save of the season. He struck out two.

The lefty retired the side in order on 10 pitches after the Giants rallied back from eight runs down to take the lead in the top of the 11th inning. Smith has been great, posting a 2.84 ERA and 1.03 WHIP while going 8-for-8 in save situations. If he keeps this up, Smith will be a fairly hot commodity at the trade deadline.

Smith recorded the save Monday against the Dodgers, working around a hit to fire a scoreless ninth inning and close out the Giants' 3-2 victory. He struck out two and walked none.

Smith allowed a bloop single to Austin Barnes, but punched out two hitters to protect the one-run lead and lock down his seventh save in as many opportunities. It was a nice bounceback effort from the left-hander, who was tagged for three earned in one inning in a non-save situation his last time out. He now has a 3.38 ERA, a 1.13 WHIP and 12 strikeouts in 10.2 innings on the season.

Smith gave up three runs on three hits and a walk while striking out one over an inning in Sunday's 11-5 loss to the Yankees.

The Giants hadn't provided Smith with a save situation since April 23, so manager Bruce Bochy deployed his closer in a non-save situation, much to the chagrin of his fantasy owners. The 29-year-old saw his ERA balloon to 3.72 after the rough outing, but he remains a perfect 6-for-6 on save opportunities this season.

Smith didn't allow a baserunner and recorded two strikeouts in the ninth inning to secure the save in Tuesday's 7-6 win at Toronto.

Smith never allowed the ball to leave the infield Tuesday to remain a perfect 6-for-6 in save opportunities. The 29-year-old has enjoyed a dominant start to the season with a 1.04 ERA, 0.81 WHIP and 9:3 K:BB over 8.2 innings.
