Those who dared slug like Joey Votto at his age
Set Number: X155591 TK1 R1 F558 Exactly 38 years ago today, our little baseball world was graced with the presence of one Joseph Daniel Votto for the first time. And since that time, that lil’ slugger has swatted, walked, scored, crushed, joked, smiled, and oped his way into our baseball hearts.
Happy birthday, Joey.
In honor of the future Hall of Famer’s birthday, we here at Red Reporter HQ dove back through the ledgers to see which other players in this game’s illustrious history were capable of creating 13 TeV by colliding proton particles with extreme force at rates similar to what Joey has done during his age-37 season. The list, I’ll warn you, is both short and distinguished.
