Box / Game Log
(Glendale loses, 2-0, to drop to 5-5)
2021 2nd round LHP Russell Smith made his AFL debut, starting and giving up one unearned run over three innings as Glendale dropped a 2-0 game (seven innings). As you'll see in the game log, there wasn't a 1-2-3 inning but the outing should be considered a success from a health standpoint as well.
Batting lower in the lineup, Warren (again playing first base) and Je'Von Ward (DH'ing here) only got two plate appearances each. Warren grounded out and was HBP, while Ward did line out in his first at-bat before a GIDP later on. Each is off to a strong start in their small samples (26 AB's Warren, 13 Ward).
