catcher Will Smith broke out of his mini-slump in historic fashion during Thursday's 12-3 win over the .
Smith went 5-for-6 with three RBI and one run while helping his side finish the National League Division Series sweep. He was 0-for-11 through the Dodgers' first four playoff games this year but tormented Padres pitching in the closeout game.
ESPN's Jeff Passan noted Smith became the first catcher in Major League Baseball history to post a five-hit game in the playoffs. What's more, he's only the ninth one to do so in history.
According to MLB Stats, Albert Pujols (2011) was the last player to tally five or more hits and three or more RBI in a playoff game.
