Pavin Smith hits grand slam and drives in 6 runs as Diamondbacks rout Cardinals 14
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Pavin Smith hit a grand slam and drove in a career-high six runs to help the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 14-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night.
Christian Walker and Kevin Newman also homered for Arizona, which leads the majors with 148 runs.
Tommy Henry (1-1) tossed six effective innings in his first win in five starts this season. The 26-year-old left-hander gave up one run on five hits and struck out six with one walk.
Willson Contreras homered for St. Louis, which has lost five of six.
Smith, recalled from Triple-A Reno on Friday, hit his second career grand slam in the sixth inning. He also had a two-run double in the fifth. His previous grand slam was in St. Louis last season.
“I feel good here,” Smith said. “I like the fans and it’s a cool stadium. It’s got a lot of history. It might be just a coincidence. But I do feel a little more comfortable here.”
