The Cincinnati Reds made a splash on Monday –– in one of their fans’ beer cups.
The 39-year-old veteran first baseman missed 72 games after surgery on his left shoulder to repair his rotator cuff and biceps.. “I’m here to compete for a job. That’s my mentality. That’s my attitude. Everything in this game is earned. I’ve been hungry since the day I entered this league. Nothing has changed.
“Now, sometimes, you can sense you might need to guard your bowl. I’m down for the challenge for sure, but it’s always been that way.”The Reds, a young team finding its footing in the NL Central, has caught Votto’s eye. “I’m a Cincinnati Red,” he said. “I was watching a team that is chasing [an NL Central title]. This is what our goal is. One step at a time, of course. This is what we play for. As a Red, I see them tearing up the games. I’m excited for my guys. These are good dudes. They’re so easy to cheer for.For the Reds and their veteran first baseman, there’s plenty to raise a glass to — even one with a foul ball in it.
