Did You Know?
- This was the 10th no-hitter in Cardinals history.
- Smith grew up in Southern California and idolized Tony Gwynn so when Gwynn stepped to the plate as a pinch-hitter in the bottom of the eighth inning, Smith had to compose himself before facing his idol.
- Gwynn grounded out to shortstop Edgar Renteria to put Smith only four outs away from his no-hitter.
- Smith had faced the Padres just five days earlier and they scored seven runs in 3 1/3 innings before he was removed from the game.
