Saturday, July 11th , 2026
Micah Smith was in a mood to talk following the Riverside Rotters contest against the Traverse City Bears, expounding to BNN reporters on his pitching philosophy. He had good reason to be excitable, having tossed a complete game shutout of the Bears, 7-0.

"There are three important elements in pitching success: location, location, and location," Smith said. "I was hitting my spots time and time again."

The right-hander blanked Traverse City on a 4-hitter, allowing no walks and racking up 9 strikeouts.

This season, Smith has crafted a 6-3 mark with a 2.34 ERA in 69.1 innings. Opposing clubs are batting .178 against him and he has 71 strikeouts.
