Charles E. "Chino" Smith (September 24, 1901 – January 15, 1932) was an American outfielder in Negro league baseball who was one of the Negro leagues' most skillful hitters of the mid-1920s and early 1930s. Satchel Paige called him one of the two most dangerous hitters in Negro league history, the other being Jud Wilson. He was known for his good eye at the plate and hit line drives to all fields.
