Smith made his first appearance with the Giants on Tuesday, giving up two runs on two hits over one-third of an inning in a loss to the Phillies.
Smith entered a tie game in the eighth inning and gave up back-to-back hits after striking out Freddy Galvis. He was lifted for Sergio Romo who promptly allowed both runners to score as well as three runs of his own. It wasn't the debut Smith or the Giants were hoping for, but he should continue to appear late in games for the club down the stretch. Moving from a losing club in Milwaukee to a team in the playoff race should increase his opportunities to rack up holds.
