4/23/25	Diamondbacks Pavin Smith Taking Relaxed Approach at the Plate. Arizona Diamondbacks DH Pavin Smith crushed his fourth homer of the season, sending a high fastball 420 feet deep, 106 MPH off the bat for a go-ahead two-run blast off Tampa Bay Rays starter Zack Littell. Smith ended the contests 2-for-3, with a double, the homer, a walk and two RBI. For those who have watched Smith consistently to open the season, it was anything but a surprise. Critics of small-sample-size conclusions might balk at any grand declarations regarding Smith's red-hot start to 2025, but it certainly seems as if this version of the 29-year-old lefty bat is closer to the new norm than a flash in the pan.
