Non-roster infielder Kevin Smith, vying for a bench job as a backup shortstop, went 3-for-3 with a three-run triple, though he also committed a fielding error in the first inning of the Yankees’ 12-6 loss to the Red Sox in Fort Myers, Fla.
By the time that first inning mercifully ended, the Red Sox led the Yankees 9-0. The final damage included two Yankees errors and three Red Sox home runs.
