    Ouch. Can't be worse than Howey Kendrick hurting himself after he hit a walk-off grand slam a couple years ago.
    I think about that every time there is a celebration at home plate.

    From Verduccis article yesterday

    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.

    • The average NL hitter bats .198 when he is behind in the count. Votto hits .300 when he is behind in the count.

    • 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."


    That last one may be the most outrageous baseball stat I have ever heard.

    That was a good read. That guy is a god if he plays in a big market.

    Agreed. I can't believe the guy has pulled only 1 (!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) ball into the stands in his career. Insane.

    Yeah, I don't know. That seems pretty impossible, but the article says, pulled one into the stands but his quote seems to imply home run length.

    Definitely means home run length I think. Still insane.

    It's crazy. I don't get how someone can stay back that much. I need to watch more Reds games.

    Amazing stats. He's got quite a bit of bat control, obviously..
