When informed he had won the Rookie of the Month award, Joe Smith was appreciative but tried to take it in stride. "This is quite an honor. Honestly, the level of competition might change, but the game doesn't. I just try to hit the ball hard no matter who the pitcher is."
After hitting .350 on the month with 2 HRs and 7 RBIs, Smith seems to have found himself a home in the majors. "I certainly don't miss the long bus trips. I'm just trying to stay here as long as I can."
