Locked in at the plate and finding barrels all day!

Tremont’s Hunter Smith (2026) stays hot at the plate this week — reaches in 3 of 5 plate appearances and scores twice. Ripped a solid double over the left fielder after barreling one up in the top of the 2nd. @Huntsmitti_18
Tremont’s Griffin Meeker (2026) came up big today.
Called in with the bases loaded and one out in the 3rd, he struck out the next two batters on just 7 pitches. He went on to earn the win over EPG, helped by his own solo HR in the top of the 7th.
