Team USA has been struggling to dominate the Paris Olympics, with a slow start on day three.

Team USA captured six bronze medals and two silver medals - eight overall, but no golds.

Imane Khelif secured a Paris 2024 Semi-Final berth and a guaranteed medal as the IOC dismissed the previous testing undertaken in 2023. Khelif defeated Hungary’s Luca Anna Hamori 5-0 in the Quarter-Final as the Algerian grabbed at least a bronze after a turbulent time. A cloud was placed on Khelif, who was born a female, for having DSD [Differences in sex development], a disorder that hasn’t yet been incorporated into Olympic standards for competition. This scenario led to a furor surrounding the welterweight, who was suspended by the now unrecognized IBA [formerly AIBA] for failing unspecified tests that were never under the jurisdiction of any other governing body.

Smith started at first base and went 0-for-4 with an RBI in Wednesday's 5-4 win over Washington. Smith typically doesn't start against left-handers, but he got the call Wednesday with Christian Walker (oblique) on the 10-day injured list. Kevin Newman started there Tuesday against a lefty, but he spelled Geraldo Perdomo at shortstop Wednesday. Eventually, trade-acquisition Josh Bell is expected to take over at first base while Walker is out, and that absence is estimated to be about three weeks.
