Dusty: Take notes...this is what can happen when guys are on base in front of Joey.
"I tried to play golf, but I found out I wasn't very good." -Joey Votto on his offseason hobby search
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldn’t do. “I can’t skate or play hockey,” Votto said. “Well, I can skate ... but I can’t stop.”
VOTTO! 2-0 Redlegs. O-cab led off with a single.
Is that the most first inning runs this year?
Baseball is like church. Many attend, few understand
Anybody else notice Phillips stare at his line drive and jog slowly?
Games are won on run differential -- scoring more than your opponent. Runs are runs, scored or prevented they all count the same. Worry about scoring more and allowing fewer, not which positions contribute to which side of the equation or how "consistent" you are at your current level of performance.
CHAT IS OPEN

Great job by Votto staying back on that slider.
