Smith secured the save Thursday against the Orioles, allowing no runs on two hits and no walks in the ninth inning.
The Guardians were leading 4-0 in the ninth inning, but a pair of Baltimore knocks to spoil Parker Messick's no-hit bid wound up creating a save situation for Smith to clean up and collect his fourth save. The right-hander allowed two inherited runners to score but was able to deliver a fourth straight outing without giving up any earned runs. Smith appears to be finding a groove as Cleveland's closer, though his ERA is still high at 4.50 after surrendering five runs in his first six appearances of the campaign.
