Smoak ’em If You Got ‘Em

David Schoenfield reviews the wild night and strange season of Justin Smoak:

The game-tying home run came off Texas Rangers closer Shawn Tolleson, off a 1-2, 94 mph fastball. The walk-off home run, the first of Smoak’s career, came on a first-pitch fastball from Phil Klein and gave the Blue Jays a 3-1 victory, a much-needed lift for an offense struggling to score runs and a team that is now 13-15. The last time a scenario like this unfolded? Fourteen years ago.

That was accomplished by Joe Crede, against Toronto. Texas was the victim this time.
