Votto is one of the best ambassadors for the MLB. Great player, hard worker, funny, humble, doesn't get involved in off-field drama. Baseball is better with Joey Votto playing.
No wonder MLB players once voted him the friendliest first baseman. If anyone wants to read a great article on Joey’s quirks and personality, check out the piece The Athletic did on him a couple of months ago. He is consistently the best interview in baseball and definitely the most interesting. What an absolute legend.
.303 lifetime, by the way. Thanks for all the memories, Joey. I’ll never forget when your contract was announced, the day before Opening Day in 2011 I think. My father and I were there at Opening Day, we went to probably ten or fifteen of them. I knew then you’d be the right player, but what I didn’t know then and has since become painfully evident is that you are the right person for this team. *The city of Cincinnati is forever a better place because of Joseph Daniel Votto.*
@@gnielsen07 He's 37 and way behind Musial in every other stat. Like it's not even close. Counting stats are not there yet, and he's running out of time.
@@BeefPapa he’s led the league in OBP 7 times... yeah he wouldn’t have made the hall of fame 20 years ago. But the voters are looking at slash lines and analytics now.. his OPS is higher than David Ortiz
Nobody does a better interview than Mr Dan Patrick. Plus I love him and all the Adam Sandler movies especially the one he was wearing those tight shorts and grown ups 2
There were four guys who didn't use the scheme: Altuve, Reddick, McCann, and Tony Kemp. More than one Astros player confirmed this to be true, including Mike Fiers.
Dude him not wanting his jersey ripped off and his explanation on why is sad and hilarious at the same time 😂😂 little guy was cheating. And I love him as a player. But come on dudes it’s obvious.
If he does not have proof that Yankees and Dodgers cheated also, he does not have the right to say to fans stop booing Altuve. He is not the one cheated. He is hall of fame player. But it does not mean. He is right.
He has his own opinion, too bad he is not pissed at someone that would cheat in baseball and didnt get their comeuppance. Everything else he has said is fake.
