Drew Smyly met Blatt while playing collegiate baseball at the University of Arkansas. He was chosen in the 2010 MLB draft by the Detroit Tigers, while Blatt continued her studies and worked in Dallas for a time.
Drew Smyly and Blatt married on January 20, 2018.
They are the parents of three children. Parker Raine Smyly, the oldest daughter, was born on August 11, 2017. On her fifth birthday, she attended a recent Chicago Cubs game. Landon Smyly, their son, was born on October 25, 2020.
Summer Blake Smyly, the couple’s youngest child, was born on July 14, 2022. She arrived just a few days after Smyly’s Cubs teammate Justin Steele’s daughter was born, and the two fathers had an adorable and relatable online exchange.
Summer would accompany her mother and siblings to her first MLB game when she was only 12 days old.
