Votto now 38th all-time (tied with 6 others) for most walks in a season.
Babe Ruth, Ted Williams and Barry Bonds all have done more than 136 in a season 6x each

You know I've said there is a gray area between wanting a better draft pick and hoping the Reds win as it builds a winning culture.
I don't think winning a slop-fest against Milwaukee does anything for the future. But a game like this can reap great dividends.

Another scoreless frame for Lamb, 6 now.
“I don’t care,” Votto said of passing his friend and former teammate. “He’s in the past. Bye-bye, Jay.”
