John Smith turned in his biggest game of the season on Monday, not allowing a single earned run and only two hits while striking out seven over six innings pitched. As if that's not impressive enough, the pitching appearance was his sixth in a row with less than two walks allowed. For the season, Smith has an ERA of 3.58 over 29.3 innings pitched.
Smith's strong effort led South Vermillion over Attica and he'll get a chance to do so again: the teams have a rematch scheduled at 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Smith has dominated as far as walks are concerned (he's averaged 1.2 per game this season), but he's got his work cut out for him considering Attica has only allowed 5.33 per game this season.
