Triples in loss
Smith started in left field and went 1-for-4 with a triple in Sunday's 6-3 loss to the Tigers.
Analyse
Smith had just three extra-base hits during his first stint in the majors this season before being demoted after 34 games, but he's delivered two of them in four games since returning to the majors. He started the season as the team's primary second baseman but has returned as a utility player. Smith is 4-for-12 with a triple, a home run and two RBI over four games (two starts) while appearing at first base, second base and left field (twice) since.

Homers off bench Thursday
Smith went 2-for-2 with a home run and an additional RBI in a 10-4 win over the Tigers on Thursday.
Analyse
Smith began the game on the bench but entered as a pinch hitter for Justin Foscue in the sixth inning. The utility man made an immediate impact with a solo homer to right field, then drove in another run on an infield single in the seventh. Smith has struggled for most of the campaign and spent time in the minors late in June, but he was called back up Wednesday and has gone 3-for-4 in two contests since his return.

Back with big club
The Rangers recalled Smith from Triple-A Round Rock on Wednesday, Evan Grant of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Analyse
Smith has hit only .218/.316/.248 during his time with the Rangers this season and has also missed time with injuries. He slashed just .224/.309/.397 in 14 games with Round Rock, but the Rangers could use Smith's versatility as they navigate injuries.
