Saturday, August 1st , 2026
The hot bat of Hillcats third baseman Jimmy Smith continues to churn out hit after hit, game after game. His consecutive-game hitting streak now numbers 20 games after he went 2-for-4 in today's 8-6 loss to the RiverDogs at Lynchburg Grounds.
"I'm trying not to think about it much," he said later. "I don't want to mess with whatever zone I'm in." Jimmy Smith singled in the 2nd, struck out in the 4th, singled in the 6th, grounded out in the 7th and was hit by a pitch in the 8th.
Smith is currently hitting at a .290 pace with 5 home runs and 29 RBIs. He has played in 63 games and scored 27 times.
