Votto goes 3-for-3, Reds Move to 3-0
The home crowd had a good time watching the Milwaukee Brewers and Cincinnati
Reds get after it. Behind the hitting of Joey Votto, the Cincinnati Reds
stopped the Milwaukee Brewers, 9-3. Votto went 3 for 3 with 2 doubles and 2
walks, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for the Reds. The Reds, now 3-0,
have hit the ground running this season. The Reds picked up the win with a
combination of good hitting and good pitching. "Nice to tuck this win away,"
said Votto.
