MINNEAPOLIS -- Angels reliever Joe Smith isn't accustomed to giving up runs in general, and even less so via the long ball. However, on Saturday at Target Field, he surrendered two homers in an inning for the first time in his career, leading to Minnesota's 6-4 victory.
With one out in the eighth, Smith threw a 2-0 sinker low-and-away to Oswaldo Arcia, who went with the pitch, depositing it into the bullpen in left-center for the go-ahead run. Byung Ho Park then punished a 2-2 hanging slider to dead center.
