Reds’ Joey Votto Pranks Ichiro With 51 Pizzas Sent To Locker

MIAMI (CBSMiami) — Whether it’s a shaving cream facial after a game-winning hit, pretending to ignore a rookie’s first career home run, or pulling a “fake” hidden ball trick, hijinx are as much a part of baseball as a seventh inning stretch sing-a-long.

The art of pranking teammates can take a lifetime to master. Pranking rivals just may be something only future Hall-of-Famers can pull off.

Such was the case earlier this week as Reds first baseman and Canadian Joey Votto was gifted some donuts by an anonymous Marlins player when the team visited Cincinnati for a four-game series.
