Former Jacket Josh Smoker makes big league debut
The New York Mets called up Calhoun native Josh Smoker on Friday morning for a matchup with the Giants in San Francisco, and this time he made it to the mound. New York had called Smoker up back in late-July for one game on an expanded double-header roster, but he never saw the field. Friday’s roster move was a swap with their triple-A club in an attempt to sure up the Mets bullpen down the stretch.
