Votto's 3 hits pave way to easy Reds win
The Nationals didn't start off their homestand very well, falling 6-1 to the Reds. Joey Votto mashed the ball every at bat, hitting a double, a home run, and a hard liner for a single. The Nationals looked lost again at the plate, tallying their only run on a sac fly in the bottom of the 9th. The NAts are back at it tomorrow at 7:05 p.m. as Jordan Zimmermann faces off against a starter TBA.
