Apparently, he is now working for the Giants organization and was recently in Richmond with the AA Flying Squirrels. My friend met him as she got his autograph and found Mr. Smith to be a very nice guy. He towered over her at 6'6".
If I recall, 'Sox traded Calvin Schiraldi and Al Nipper to the Cubs to get Lee Smith. A few years later, they inexplicably signed Jeff Reardon as closer and then had trade Smith to the Cardinals for Tom Brunasky. Bruno was good for the 'Sox and was key, along with LHP Tom Bolton, during the 1990 stretch run.
