    I believe he's the first Red to hit three homers since Aaron Boone did it in April of 2003 against the Cardinals.

    Don't ask me how I remember that....

    That is correct.

    Congrats Votto...killer day. More than half of his career home runs have come against the Cubs.

    I think Votto just equaled Casey's career HR totals in one game.

    I thought he wasn't supposed to have a lot of home run power. So much for all that.
