Andrew Smart assumed nothing, going yard on Friday in a Little League World Series Regional game. The son of Georgia football head coach Kirby Smart, it was a well-hit opposite field home run from Andrew Smart.
As the game announcers noted, Andrew Smart is the youngest son of Kirby Smart, who has won two national championships as head coach of Georgia.
Georgia (Oconee County American Little League in Watksinville) defeated South Carolina 8-6 in Friday’s game. They are now 1-1 in the regional tournament.
For those who are curious, Andrew Smart is a pitcher in the class of 2030 prospect. He bats right-handed and throws right-handed.
No truth to the rumors that Nick Saban is already protesting his commitment to Georgia baseball.

Just a bit of pumped up emotion from Andrew Smart rounding the basepath. Pumped up for sure, but no gloating or grandstanding.
Dad must have been proud about that sportsmanship for sure.
