In a high-scoring game between Sandusky and Cleveland, catcher Malachi Smith was a difference-maker. The 21-year-old helped Sandusky grab the 13-9 win.

With Sandusky leading 9-6 in the top of the seventh, Smith hit a fastball from Ryan Barber for a grand slam home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Seagulls ahead, 13-6.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Smith.
