Circumstances surrounding Will Smith's second daughter birth

There were some unusual circumstances when Will Smith's second daughter, Layton, was welcomed. At the time, the Dodgers catcher was in the middle of a postseason, and thus, he couldn't be with his wife, Cara, all the time. However, everything played out well.

The Dodgers overcame the New York Mets in six games to wrap up the NLCS. They were awaiting the winner of the Cleveland Guardians and the New York Yankees to meet in the World Series. In between, Cara gave birth to Layton and Smith could be there for the birth of his second daughter.

The birth proved to be lucky as the Dodgers went on to win the World Series against the Yankees in five games.
