Cam Smith wins the 10 PITCH battle in EPIC fashion!

cam Smith struck out his first time up nothing and one runner on second two outs smith pops a foul back behind first interesting here colin Ray is first at bat to Cam Smith punched him out on a fast ball above his own first pitch fast ball above the zone hits another swing and miss will he go back up there or will he try to get him to chase a breaking ball in the dirt the O2 from Ray another foul off to the right side
tried to tried to elevate the fastball didn’t throw it high enough he throws that about 6 to 8 in higher you see him shaking his head because he knows if he throws that 6 to8 in higher that’s probably a punch out ray missing high now one and two [Music] this is what Joe Spotter raved about Cam Smith is in in atbat adjustments mentioned in the high fast ball there he took it you saw him shaking his head saying “All right now what’s next [Applause] here’s the two from Rake another foul [Applause] myers takes his lead off second two outs [Applause] ball three [Applause] no [Applause] now the payoff pitch from Rake this is just a great at bat by a young a young guy Cam Smith think about this Kenny a year ago he was playing in the College World Series for Florida State and here he is hitting fourth for a team in first place in the major leagues ninth pitch of the at bat it will be a 10th
and just to I’ll reiterate it tremendous at bat by a young kid facing a veteran pitcher in Colin Ray is throwing a fast balls up sliders down sinkers in trying to get him off of everything and he has stayed on there and fought it off no see if he can pay it off with a base hit pips number 10 from Ray and Smith drives this one deep left field it is gone cam Smith wins the battle 10 pitch at bat he takes Colin Ray deep second home run in as many nights against the team that drafted him in the first round what an at bat that’s that’s all I can say is what an at bat and he gets a hanging breaking ball after fouling off high fast balls taking the sinker in and he knows it right away a little bat flip and he’s saying you guys drafted me last year traded me and here I am hitting home runs against you guys what an at bat by Cam Smith
