Episode notes

Starkville | Newly retired Joey Votto makes another appearance in Starkville. He talks about his season in the minors, how he knew it was time to hang em up, his love of the game and his approach to the game, how he will never forget his last official MLB game and much much more.

Strange But True- Diamondbacks Pavin Smith hits 3 homers in his first 3 at bats of the game vs the Astros on Sunday and of course some strange stats and facts came from it.

Trivia Question is from Michael-Joey Votto’s batting average slipped under .300 his last two years. Through 15 seasons, he was a .300/.400/.500 player. There are 6 guys who played in the 21st century who slashed .300/.400/.500. Who were they?
