Biography

Smith was born "Jacob Schmidt" on June 10, 1887, in Dravosburg, Pennsylvania.

In 1911, Smith played two games for the Philadelphia Phillies. In his two games as a pitcher, he finished both games in which he played, meaning that he completed the final inning in each. He threw a total of five innings in those contests. He faced 19 batters, of whom he struck out one and walked two. Having allowed three hits to supplement his two free passes, he amassed a WHIP ratio (walks plus hits per inning pitched) of 1.000.

As a hitter, Smith made three plate appearances in his two games. He did not collect any hits in those three times at bat, but did earn a single run batted in. While fielding on the mound, Smith had a perfect 1.000 fielding percentage, making two assists in his two fielding chances.
