Surprised Votto didn't take the Victor Martinez route around home plate.

Votto has run like he is afraid of getting hurt for over a year now. If every single poster on this board knows it Speier has to know it too.

It's his tentativeness, not his knee.
Now whether he's tentative because of his knee, I'm not sure.
When you run bases with a 2 out hit and run, you gotta pick up your third base coach immediately. He took bad turns at both bags....he slows down to touch the bag. He needs to work on that if he is going to continue to be a world beater at OBP.
Cards blowing out the Padres, 6-0 top 7
should have left para in
there's nothing like bowling a 300 game! 13 now and retired.
Ricky henderson has a higher OBP than C. patterson and he's retired. C. Trent 6-14-2008
Sam looks a little too amped
A guy who basically OPS's 1.000 under most situations, I'd rather he not take a chance on hurting his knee. I'm OK with Votto's base-running. I'm not OK with Chris Speier. I've always disliked him since his first days in the League (never liked most of the Giants who played with/under Dusty).

Lecure gets out of trouble. Ground ball double play. One more shot for the Reds to grab some insurance here.
