Joey Votto drew a three-ball walk
The baseball world is well aware of Reds first baseman Joey Votto‘s ability to draw walks. But we figured that he, like everyone else, would always need to see four pitches out of the strike zone to do so. Ah, not so.
In the seventh inning on Sunday, Votto drew a three-ball walk against Nationals reliever Matt Grace. The Reds had already scored once to break a 2-2 tie prior to the walk, but they went on to score five more en route to an 8-2 win. James Wagner of the Washington Post went back to the video and confirmed that Votto indeed drew the walk on three balls.
