[OS X TeX] Bib formatting? Not apalike?

This is probably an easy question, but I can't seem to find it  
anywhere....

When I type \cite{tag} I get text that looks like this:  Smith (2003)

The year is in parentheses, so I often end up with text that looks  
like this in the document:
The data was great (Smith (2003); Jones (2004)).

I would like:
The data was great (Smith, 2003; Jones, 2004).

Is there a way to get bibtex to format like this?  I'm currently using  
these settings:

\usepackage{natbib}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}
\bibliography{bibfile}


TIA,
travis
