    Couple Joey Votto facts that are unbelievable

    • Votto has not popped up to the infield all season. In fact, he has popped out to the infield only three times in 2,138 plate appearances over the past four seasons.


    • Votto has pulled a ball foul into the stands only once in his entire major league career. Once."Sure, I remember it," he said. "It was my rookie year. It wasn't that deep -- and maybe 20, 30 feet foul. I haven't hit a long home run foul in my whole career."

    One pulled foul ball in his entire career. WOW.

    Joey Votto is an awesome talent. I'm hoping he helps carries the Reds offense tonight.

    You get to watch two of the most fundamentally sound baseball swings in the game today here in this one: Votto and Miguel Cabrera.

    Impressive, considering Rickie Weeks has only hit 3 balls that were not infield fly balls all season long.
