Royals pitcher Will Smith endured his worst outing of the spring Friday against the Padres in Cactus League play.
Smith, who made his second start of the spring, allowed a two-run home run to Nick Hundley to capp off a three-run first inning.
"It was a first-pitch fastball, I was just trying to get a strike," Smith said. "It was up, belt-high and he did what he was supposed to do with it -- crushed it."
He gave up five runs -- one earned -- on five hits in four innings of work in a 7-5 victory. He also struck out two and did not issue a walk. His ERA went up to 1.64 in the spring.
